Object type: SPINDLE WHORL
Broad period: UNKNOWN
County: Shropshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A complete lead spindle whorl of unknown exact date (c. AD 43-1700). The object is roughly conical in shape with a flat base and a circular perforation truncating the centre of the object. The whorl is plain and undecorated with a white patina. Plain lead spindle whorls were in use from the Roman period to the present day, therefore without any contextual information it is difficult to apply an exact date. A large number of this type of spindle whorl have been recorded on the PAS database dated from the Roman to Post Medieval periods. Such examples include: DENO-D0AED4; WMID-32510A…

Record ID: DUR-2D90CD
Object type: WEIGHT
Broad period: MEDIEVAL
County: Darlington
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A complete cast lead weight of the Medieval to Post Medieval period (AD1350-1800). The weight is semi-spherical, the upper rounded surface is badly pitted with some scuff marks which seem to be of a modern nature. the opposing flat surface is also pitted, though not to the same extent. The general patina on all surfaces is of a pale grey or green colouring. The artefact weighs just over two imperial pounds, probably indicating it's use as a weight. However, the form is somewhat unusual. Height: 35.02mm Width: 78.48mm Weight: 985g
