A lead weight probably of post medieval date (c. 1600-1900) The object is lozenge-shaped, with well formed flat surfaces but with no stamp or decoration. Edges are rounded, giving a sub-rectangular section. One end is blunt, the other tapers to a neck and terminates on an old break, revealing what appears to be embedded wire, which would probably have formed a suspension loop. There are dents and scars on all surfaces, possibly from post depositional chewing by grazing animals. Lozenge-shaped weights are often identified as fishing weights on this database. Length iis 44.5 mm, widt…

Lead hem or curtain weight, in the form of a 3.2mm thick flat disc with a recessed central circle of 9.1mm diameter on one face, within which are two attachment holes. The disc has old breaks with loss over two-thirds of the perimeter; if it were complete the diameter would be c27mm. It is well patinated with a creamy brown colour. The holes are straight sided and of 2.3mm diameter. Similar examples can be seen on the database, e.g. NLM-B5C516, LANCUM-0C64F1, PUBLIC-12B9F7. There is a reference to hem weights on page 83 of Bailey's (2004) 'Buttons and fasteners'. Probably of …

A worn cast lead alloy token or tally of post-medieval date. The token bears the faint remains of a raised design of a grid pattern on one side and an abstract pattern on the other. Lead tokens had a wide variety of potential uses such as use as tallies, gaming pieces, weights, etc. and are believed to have been locally produced; they are therefore difficult to date precisely. Those carrying initials are generally deemed to be Post Medieval in date (c. AD 1500 - 1850), although this example is likely to be 17th century in date. It has been suggested that grid designs may represent …
