The weight is sub circular in plan, although the edges are irregular and ragged due to damage, with sides that taper to a rounded terminal. A sub triangular loop is set in the centre of the flat top. The loop is made from iron wire with a circular cross section. The weight has a light grey colour and all surfaces are abraded. Soil still adheres to the surface. Maximum diameter at base: 44.14mm. Length of weight is 37.92mm with increases to 47.76mm when including the loop. Weight: 254.5g.
