Description: | A cast lead conical weight. The weight has a central piercing on the base which is 9.7mm in diameter. The piercing goes through to a narrow opening on the side which is 4.8mm in length, possibly a casting error. The weight is 24.8mm in length and 16.4mm in diameter. It weighs 15.03gms.
Such weights are difficult to date and could have a range of functions; the style and patina of this example suggest it is probably post medieval. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | WALKER, Liz - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
