Description: | A lead probable stylus for writing on slate with tapering terminal ends. This stylus is bent in its centre and has signs of recent possibly agricultural damage, it has a roughly circular cross-section and measures c82mm in length, if straightened, and 8mm in width. A similar lead stylus is illustrated in Detector Finds (Gordon Bailey, 1995, p52-53, no 5), he states that these are difficult to date but are often associated with post medieval sites which date pre-1700. | Format: | text/html | License: | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/ | Publisher: | The Portable Antiquities Scheme | Rights holder: | The Portable Antiquities Scheme | Subjects: | archaeology | Temporal: | 1600
