Object type: METAL WORKING DEBRIS
Broad period: UNKNOWN
County: Lincolnshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Two small pellets of metal of unknown date, probably lead alloy, which are probably the result of metal working in the area. One is a white patinated sub-spherical pellet which is about 4.8mm in diameter and weighs 0.49g. The other is a solid hemisphere of dark grey metal (perhaps unpatinated lead alloy). The flat face is rough and pitted, and the convex face is smooth with pimples at the apex. It is 6.04mm in diameter, 3.9mm tall and weighs 0.48g. Though superficially similar to the many lead alloy weights recovered from this site, these droplets do not have the characteristic depres…

Object type: TOKEN
Broad period: MEDIEVAL
County: Somerset
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Medieval or Post Medieval cast lead alloy circular double sided token of Powell type 1. The token has a raised design of a six petaled flower on one side and a five petaled flower or possibly figure on the other. The petals are pointed oval and on both sides there is a raised line border around part of the edge. It is 18.5mm in diameter, 4.2mm thick and weighs 7.16 grams. Lead tokens had a wide variety of uses and were made locally; they are therefore difficult to date precisely and could be Medieval or Post Medieval in date (1250-1850 AD).

The disc has been decorated on both sides; there are faint impressions of incised marks and lettering, although these are no too badly worn to be made out. It is possible the object could be a bag or cloth seal but there appears to be no attachment fittings. It could be an impression made from a seal matrix in to lead, or a weight.

County: North Yorkshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A cast lead alloy, shield shaped weight, probably of medieval date. The upper surface carries the design of a fleur-de-lys, the underside is flat. This was once, perhaps, a half ounce weight, but a narrow strip of material has been cut away from the upper edge of the shield, reducing the weight. This cut is very sharp, but whether it is deliberate or accidental cannot be determined. The weight is 24.7mm long, 18mm wide and 5.7mm thick. It weighs 13.01gm. A similar weight is illustrated in Biggs & Withers, 2000, Lead Weights:The David Rogers Collection, Page 42, number 113.

An incomplete and extremely worn cast lead seal of post-medieval to modern date. The seal is roughly circular in plan with an irregular sub-rectangular cross section and is comprised of a single disc of metal which is perforated by two holes running across its diameter. The hole would have been for wire or textile ligatures which were used to secure a bag. Some iron corrosion is present within the holes.
