Description: | A small dome shaped lead weight, with a circular base. There is a small irregular perforation running through the centre of the weight. The hole is now largely filled with lead corrosion product and soil. The weight is undecorated but the weight has a very rough surface, suggesting that it has been crudely made.
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.
The weight weighs: 11g (0.4 oz). | 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 | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Identifier: | http://www.finds.org.uk/database/artefac... | Language: | en-GB | Format: | text/html | Go to resource |
