Description: | A cast lead steelyard weight of possible Roman or later date. It is roughly biconical in form, tapering at top and bottom, and unevenly cast around its circumference and upper edges. At the top centre are the remains of an iron loop that is now incomplete due to old breaks and not visible on the lower edge. The entire object measures 37.45mm in length, 37.67mm in diameter, and 182.49g in weight.This is probably a simple steelyard weight of possible Roman date, although a later date range cannot be ruled out entirely.
