Object type: WEIGHT
Broad period: ROMAN
County: Buckinghamshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A complete lead weight of uncertain date. The weight is conical with a sub-circular base, and irregular mouldings which taper to flattened apex. A central perforation is present on the base and continues through the length of the object to the apex. Weights were cast locally in lead from the Roman period onwards for a wide variety of uses and are hard to date precisely. Therefore, due to a lack of contextual evidence and any diagnostic features it is not possible to date this object any more closely.
