Description: | Cast lead button or weight for holding down a hem or a curtain, circular in plan and flat in section, with two central circular holes and an incised line about 1 mm in from the edge which runs within the circumference as a border. The button has been bent since deposition on the soil but would have originally been flat.Bailey (2004) illustrates a similar example on page 83, Fig.9.396 that is dated from the 18th to the 19th century.
