A complete lead weight of uncertain date. The weight is circular with a circular perforation running through the centre. Part of the weight has become misshapen, most probably as a result of its deposition. The metal is a mid brownish-grey colour and is worn. The weight is 16.8mm in diameter, 9.6mm thick and weighs 12.7g. Due to a lack of contextual evidence and any diagnostic features it is not possible to date this object any more closely though it is possibly either Roman to Medieval in date.
