The front face of the terminal has a line of punched triangles and dot along the outer edge and possibly a line of only punched dots along the inner edge. Each bird head has an eye rendered by an incised pointed o…

Lead conical weight of uncertain date, probably within the range c. 43 - 1750 AD. The weight has a flat, circular bottom face and sides that angle inwards. The surface is marked and ridged. The object has a light-brown patina. It is 36.64mm in length, 30.54mm in diameter and weighs 132.06g. Lead weights are difficult to date precisely without archaeological context. Similar examples of this type of weight are recorded on the database, often with an iron suspension loop, including LANCUM-8AB064, KENT-AD5BF4 and LEIC-9FF3C7. These are given various date ranges from the Roman to post-…

An incomplete copper alloy sword belt-hanger of post-medieval date (c. 1500 - 1600). Approximately half of the plate survives, with one suspension loop and part of another. A third suspension loop and the right terminal are missing. There is a 1.6 mm diameter rivet hole above the central, incomplete suspension loop. The plate has incised foliate decoration on the face, the reverse is blank, the rivet hole appears counter sunk on the reverse.. A very similar object is illustrated in Read (2001, p 43, no 373), with hooked mounts attached to the suspension loops. This is dated to the 16t…

Lead weight of probable post-medieval date (c. 1600 - 1800 AD). The weight is cylindrical in shape with a circular depression at the centre of one face. The object has a light-brown patina. It is 20.33mm in diameter and 10.27mm in thickness. It weighs 25.40g. Lead weights are difficult to date without archaeological context. The shape of this example, as well as the light patina, suggests a post-medieval date range is accurate, although a similar example on the database is recorded as uncertain: DENO-6BAA12.

Lead weight of uncertain date (c. 43 - 1800 AD). The weight is broadly lentoid in shape, bulging at the middle and narrowing at each end. The weight presumably had some sort of suspension loop at one end, which is now missing. The object has a light-brown patina. It is 31.91mm in length and 15.09mm in width. It weighs 26.80g. This type of lead weight was crudely made and had multiple functions, including as fishing weights. Similar objects are known from the Roman to the post-medieval period and it is therefore not possible to assign a more precise range to this example.
