Description: | LeadWeight. Cast waisted weight, resembling an exaggerated cotton reel form. This may have facilitated tied attachment, or movement along a guide or channel. Comparable weights accompany groups of Roman finds from Newbald Lodge, East Yorkshire, in the Foster Collection of metal detector finds held at the Hull and East RidingMuseum. However, their function remains uncertain, and it is equally uncertain whether they form part of the Roman assemblage, or derive from later activity centred on the 19th-century farm. Suggested date: Roman to Modern, 40-1900.Diameter: 36mm, Height: 32.5mm, Weight: 144.66gms.
