Description: | Copper alloyPlumb bob. Cast conical weight with hemispherical end and apical suspension loop, with a basal knop. The finder suggests this object may have been lost during the laying out of Ermine Street; however, such objects are frequently reported from the area of Roman roads, so a unique role for this piece is perhaps unlikely. Suggested date: Roman, 40-400.Height: 44.4mm, Diameter: 15.8mm, Weight: 23.55gms.
