A flattish D shaped limestone object with one flat and one convex face. A 5mm diameter hole has been drilled through 15mm in from the curved edge. All the surfaces are roughly finished. A number of perforated and grooved stone weights were found in the river Ouse in north Buckinghamshire. These were considered (Mynard 1979) to be the sinkers for fish or eel baskets and the hole allowed the weight to be tied to the bottom of the basket. Because of the way these weights were found, their dating remains problematic but documentary evidence of fishing in the area suggests that they could h…
