Lead possible spindle whorl. A cast plano-convex weight with a central moulded aperture of diameter 11.2mm on one side, though the aperture is nearly closed by a flow of lead due to miscasting, on the convex side, which is also rough in its surface texture. Shrinkage lines suggest it was cast in an open mould. Patinated. A deep nick resembling a tying notch also appears on the flat face, revealing grey metal, though this may have been emphasised or formed by damage at the time of discovery or shortly thereafter - similar marks appear inside the hole. If a whorl, this may represent a c…

Lead musket ball. Cast ball with a flattened patch at opposed ends, probably from its inclusion in a multiple load, while a flattened circumferential belt may arise from set up, an effect occurring at the instant of firing an unwadded projectile.
