Maximum diameter of weight 17-18mm, thickness 12mm, internal diameter of perforation 4mm, weight 19.5 grams.","The function of lead weights such as these is not certain.  Conventionally, they are identified as spindle whorls and certainly they would have performed such a function (e.g. Egan 1998, 259-261, nos.803-804, fig.203); however, they have also been variously identified as unofficial weights used by traders or weights for other purposes such as weighing down rabbiting, bird or fishing nets or even wall hangings (Margeson 1993, 139; Bailey 1995, 29).  Crudely cast lead weights like this example are difficult to date.  Excavated examples from Wales range in date from the medieval period until the nineteenth century, although the possibility of an earlier date can not be dismissed.","","1999-09-10 00:00:00","2011-02-24 12:19:17","3","","1","","","","","","","1","","","","","","","","pmacdonald","Philip MacDonald","PUBLIC","dpett","Daniel Pett","Lead","","","","Cast","","","","Certain","ROMAN","POST MEDIEVAL","","Metal detector","","","","","NEWPORT","","NEWPORT","","","","","ST3319","ST39SW","","","","","","Caerleon area, South Wales","Calculated from parish centroid","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","",
