Description: | LeadWeight. Cast weight of cotton reel or bobbin form, with the two ends of slightly unequal size: with diameters of circa 35mm and 34mm with a constriction to diameter 25mm between them. The form may be intended to permit a tied fastening in the waist of the object, or may facilitate a function requiring the weight to move, possibly in a channel like a sash weight. Objects of this form were reported along with predominantly Roman period material from Newbald Lodge, East Riding of Yorkshire, and further examples are occasionally reported. Suggested date: probably Roman, 40-400.Diameter: 35.3mm, Height: 25.8mm, Weight: 185.13gms.
