An Early-Medieval lead-alloy weight with inserted copper-alloy decorative panel.
The artefact takes the form of quadrant-shaped block with vertical outer sides and a flat base. A chip carved copper-alloy panel has been inserted into the upper surface of the weight, occupying most of the weight's upper surface, with which it sits flush. The decoration is skilfully executed, comprising an elaborate interlace pattern of ridges and 'V-shaped' grooves. The design is that of a stylised, winged, dragon-like animal, entwined with foliate spirals. The left-facing head of the beast is located…

A lead weight, probably a steelyard weight. The weight is an elongated pyramid with a truncated apex. There is pierced hole running from the apex to the base where it emerges slightly off- centre. The base ia sub- angular and slightly dished around a collar encircling the hole. The dishing suggests this was cast in an open mould, point downwards. THe collar indicates that the lead was still fairly soft when the hole was made. The weight is equivalent to approximately 2.5 ounces.

A conical lead weight. At the apex is an integrally cast large suspension lug with a small sub-circular pierced hole. The lug is flattened and narrowed from the apex and is rounded on the upper edge. It has been bent over and distorted. Set opposite each other about halfway down the conical body of the weight are two projections which appear to be the ends of a circular cross sectioned wire cast into the weight (either the ends of one object or two separate pieces). The circular base of the weight is slightly concave and has a small off-centre void or depression. There is some recent …

An early Medieval lead-filled copper alloy pan weight, probably dating to c. AD 950-1150. The weight consists of a lead-filled copper alloy sheath; it is circular in plan, with either face decorated with an openwork saltire of two opposing arches. The arches are further elaborated with an incised line following the arc, with the two lines joined at the centre by two further incised transverse lines, creating a central sub-square field, possibly intended as a rudimentary union knot. The weight is sub-rectangular in cross-section with rounded edges, and the lateral face is plain.
