Description: | A lead alloy weight of Medieval to Post-Medieval date. The object is circular in plan and conical. There is no visible decoration. At the base of the object is a circular perforation measuring 1.00mm in diameter and surrounded by a raised rim. This probably would have held a rod of iron which would have been looped for suspension. Lead weights of this form were commonly used throughout the Medieval and Post-Medieval period and are therefore difficult to date accurately. The object has a mid-white patina.Dimensions: 20.17mm in length, 18.82mm in diameter, 43.2g.
