Description: | A complete cast lead probable weight, possibly dating to the Roman period, between AD 43 - 410 (length: 48.5mm; width: 17.5mm; thickness: 14.5mm; weight: 57.05g). The weight is oblong-shaped in plan and sub-lozenge shaped in section with a crudely shaped suspension loop at one end that has been bent to one side. The artefact has a prominent central rib down the length of the artefact to either side. No other decoration is visible on this weight. Overall, the artefact is in a worn but in a fair condition. Three other similar artefacts have been recorded with the Portable Antiquities Scheme (see WMID-9521F5, found in Bushwood, Warwickshire & WMID-796B76, found at Mayfield, Staffordshire). | 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: | 43
