A copper-alloy trade weight of post-Medieval date. At the centre of the upper surface of the discoidal weight is a moulded ring with incuse central pellet. A number of concentric grooves surround this ring, the outer ones obscured by corrosion. The underside is largely plain but has an irregular depression at the centre, which may be a casting flaw or lathe attachment scar. The only other embellishment to the underside is a pair of circumferential grooves.

A copper-alloy box from a medieval set of cup weights. The cup has a flat circular base, and near-vertical side decorated by four pairs of vertical grooves. Two perforated right-angled lugs project from the back of the cup; these represent the point of attachment for a now-missing hinged lid. A single flat-surfaced lug projects from the front of the rim; this lug has a single perforation and may have been part of the lid's clasp mechanism.
