Nice going Colin, I'm pretty sure it's a farthing of Edward, London mint (but you may know that bit) can you take another shot of the obverse that is more overhead so as the whole coin is in focus and if you can put the X in the 11 o'clock position this should make it upright.

As Geoff said - a farthing of Edward I, II or III.

Would be helpful if you could get a clearer image of the head side, but I think it could be too worn to distinguish the differences that would pin down the ID more closely.
