Description: | A lead Roman steelyard weight, biconical in shape measuring 25mm in height and 26.8mm in diameter. At either end there is corroded iron, this is the remains of two iron loops; one loop would have been for suspension and the other one to suspend the object being weighed. Similar steelyard weights have been found on other Roman sites within Suffolk e.g at Hitcham (see SF-995f52).
