Description: | A corroded circular cast lead weight with ten ridges radiating from a central loop. In the centre of the weight is a suspension loop which is bent slightly to one side. The sides are slightly bevelled to a slightly larger base. In the centre of the base is a small depression. A smaller weight, but with similar decoration can be found illustrated in Biggs and Withers (2000, 23; ref. 32). Their simplicity of design means that they are difficult to date (ibid., 21), but a medieval dating is plausible in this case.
