Description: | A complete cast lead weight of post-medieval date. The weight is sub-rectangular in plan tapering from base to top with rounded edges. A circular perforation is present at the top end and was presumably used for attachment.It is likely that this weight, like similar examples, was used as a fishing weight however it may also have served one of a number of other functions.The metal is a mid brownish-grey colour and survives in good condition. The weight is 60.1mm long, 36.4mm wide, 10.1mm thick and weighs 174g. | Publisher: | http://finds.org.uk | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Identifier: | http://finds.org.uk/database/artefacts/r... | Go to resource |
