The plate has a circular base with a short wall which runs vertical from the base at an angle of approximately 80 degrees. The rim is horizontal, flat, and is turned downwards and folded onto the underside thus forming a shallow facet around the perimeter. The form of rim suggests this belongs to Peal type 4b (Peal 1967). The central part of the base is made from a circular sheet of lead alloy. This was either soldered to the rest of…

A cast lead spindle whorl of lines and pellets design. possibly Walton Type C. probably medieval. The object is bi-conical and carinated, (has a ridge around the circumference). both faces are convex. It is worn but appears to have a moulded relief pellet and line design. The patina is cream.
