The perforation is off-centre and slightly tapered.  Diameter of weight 19-20mm, thickness 7.5-9mm, internal diameter of perforation 8-9mm, weight 16.9 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; 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","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","",
