Description: | This is a typical lead alloy spindle whorl of indeterminate date. This example is ball shaped with a central hole diameter of 6.9 mm and no decoration. It was found in close proximity of a few small Roman finds and thus, it may be of Roman origin. However, their use continues well into the post medieval and a later date cannot be ruled out. The surface is oxidised with a whitish/grey layer.
