Description: | A crude, lead alloy spindle whorl of uncertain date from the Roman to Medieval periods. The whorl is sub circular in plan and rectangular in section. The hole is off centre and slightly angled. One face is slightly hollowed. It would seem to fit into Coppergate type B1.Spindle whorls are very difficult to date as few are found in dated contexts.
