Description: | A small pyramidal shaped lead weight, with a rectangular base. The weight has four triangular faces. The four triangular faces meet at a flatten apex (possibly due to wear and corrosion). The faces are all irregular as the weight has been crudely made. The base has had a crude wide groove cut into it, making the base appear concave. The weight is undecorated but has a very rough surface. A typology of lead weights has not yet been developed, so these weighs are not yet completely understood. Due to a lack of excavated examples these weights must remain undated. The weight appears to be complete. The lead is a light whitish-grey colour.
