Description: | This is a small cast lead alloy spindle whorl of indeterminate date. Given the nature of these items, they remain something of an enigma to date as they may date to anytime between the Roman and Post Medieval periods. In this instance, the whorl is simply cast as a trapezium with a large central hole being 8mm in diameter. The material is now oxidised to grey/white and there is some damage/wear to the topmost (narrower) surface.
