Description: | Cast lead alloy weight in the form of a tapering cylinder with flat base and top and a large circular hole running through the centre. It is 26.1mm long, 19.0mm in diameter at one end and 15.0mm at the other; the hole is 8.8mm in diameter and it weighs 38.7 grams. Such simple weights were easily produced, often at home, for a variety of uses and are hard to date precisely. They are likely to be Medieval - Post Medieval in date. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Burnett, Laura - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
