Broad period: UNKNOWN
County: Cambridgeshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A biconical lead steelyard weight of uncertain date. Although it is difficult to date weights this one may be Roman in date as it was found on a site producing prodominantly Roman artefacts. The weight is oval with a diameter of 27.56mm x 25.24mm and a height of 26.27mm. The artefact weighs 63.45g (2.24oz). It is uncertain whether the cross section of this weight was originally circular but has become reshaped into an oval under it's own weight. An iron attachment loop passed through the centre of the weight and the remains of this can be seen at either end.

Object type: VESSEL
Broad period: UNKNOWN
County: Cambridgeshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A large complete cast lead pot mend of uncertain date. The pot mend is comprised of two large oval discs joined by a thick central shank and was used to mend a broken vessel in order to lengthen the period of use after damage had occurred. The shank can be seen coming through the centre of the smaller of the two plates. The gap between the two plates is quite wide and contains no surviving ceramic material which would help in dating the object. The metal is a mid grayish-white colour and is worn. The pot mend is 45.9mm long, 34.5mm wide, 16.7mm thick and weighs 111g.

Object type: SPINDLE WHORL
Broad period: UNKNOWN
County: Cambridgeshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
An incomplete spindle whorl of uncertain date. It is missing part of one end due to old breaks but is otherwise intact. The whorl appears to be formed from fired grey/brown clay. It is circular in form, oval shaped in section with a large central circular aperture and very smooth, regular surfaces. It measures 21.62mm in length, 30.13mm in external diameter, 11.31mm in internal diameter, and 24.24g in weight. This is a ceramic spindle whorl of uncertain date. It is possible that it dates as early as the Anglo-Saxon period, although a later date cannot be ruled out entirely.

Copper-alloy tweezers. Tweezers can be difficult to date as they alter very little between the start of the Roman period through to the early Anglo-Saxon period (43-750). These tweezers are formed from a single strip of copper-alloy that has a rectangular cross-section. The strip has been bent in half to form a suspension loop at the closed end. The external surface of the loop has a slight 'U' shaped depression along the centre that stops on both sides before the two sides of the strip come together again. The oval gap created by the loop has a length of 2.76mm and width of 1.32mm. T…
