Description: | A lead spindle whorl which could be Roman or later in date as they do not change in form through time. It is worn and a flattened cone-shape with a central circular hole. It measures 12.7mm in height and c23.5mm in base diameter, the central hole is c8.2mm in diameter. The spindle whorl is cracking on its outer surfaces. There are faint traces of vertical straight grooves down the sides of the spindle whorl but they are very worn and often obscured by the cracking.
