Object type: WEIGHT
Broad period: UNKNOWN
County: Sheffield
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation Find awaiting validation
A flat and rectangular piece of lead which may be a weight. The object is 29.1mm long, 22.3mm wide and 3.7mm thick. It has a thick white patina which is chipped at the edges and it does not seem to be decorated or marked at all. It weighs 22.6g. Lead weighs are notoriously difficult to date and are very imperfectly understood currently.

A large bun shaped lead weight, with a circular, concave base. The weight is undecorated and it has not been perforated. There is a copper alloy loop extending out from the apex of the weight. A typology of lead weights has not yet been developed, so these weighs are not yet completely understood. Due to the lack of context this weight must remain undated. The weight appears to be complete. The lead is a light whitish-grey colour.

A lead alloy probable weight. The object is conical, and has a hole running vertically through the centre. There are several old dents on the side and base, and a recent scrape. Lead weights are imperfectly understood and cannot normally the attributed to a specific period. It is hoped that increased recording and further study of these objects will allow better understanding in the future. This one weighs 98.2g, which is not far off three ounces. The hole through this example casts some doubt on its function as a standing weight, yet the hole seems too narrow to allow use as a spindle…
