Broad period: UNKNOWN
County: Buckinghamshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A lead alloy biconical spindle whorl of probable medieval date. There is traces of faint moulded decoration in the form of vertical ribs around both upper and lower hemispheres. The central hole is slightly sub-circular. Although spindle whorls are very hard to date withour contectual informaiton or more distinction decoration, it is likely that thsi example dates from the medieval period. However comparing this to other examples, it is taller, more narrow and more compact than the usual medieval-attributed examples recorded on this database.
