Description: | A lead alloy probable weight which is 35.3mm long. The weight is an oval cylinder which is also oval in section. It is 17.3mm wide and 15.1mm thick. There is a circular perforation lengthways through the centre of the weight. The object has a mid grey patina and may be a fishing net weight. It weighs 43.9g. Lead weights are very imperfectly understood currently. It is hoped that by recording them as often as possible, a large body of data that can be studied will be built up. This example may date from the medieval period. | Subjects: | fishing | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Cooper, Amy - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
