Description: | An incomplete cast lead object, possibly a stylus of uncertain date. The object is circular in section with a blunted point to one end. The metal is a light greyish-brown colour and is worn. The object is 54mm long, 7mm in diameter and weighs 19.8g.Stylus' of this type are known to have been in use from the Roman to post-medieval periods. Therefore, due to a lack of contextual evidence and any diagnostic features it is not possible to date this object any more closely.
