Object type: WORKED OBJECT
County: Dorset
Workflow stage: Published
Fragment of dense greenish stone with deeply carved recesses on both sides. Overall the piece was probably circular – the remaining original edge is curving. The edge is sharp on one side and rounded on the other. On the sharp edged the carving consists of part of a (possibly central) circular recess with angled sides and a central circular hole. Towards the edge is a smaller circular recess with a central boss (truncated cone) with a recessed dot on top. This joins to a u-shaped channel. On the other side are traces of a similar recess to the latter.

County: Pembrokeshire
Workflow stage: Published
The stone is micaceous sandstone and has been worked to a near-spherical form. There is a flat area with a central indentation. This may have been used as a base, indicating that it may have been used as a decorative architectural feature, of post medieval to modern date. It is also possible that it may have been used as shot from a gun with a 3.5 inch bore. Stone shot was sometimes used before iron shot was introduced in the 17th century
