On the reverse the attachment loop is set at the top but there is a handle which runs down the middle almost to the base. On the reverse there is quite a bit of corrosion and some of the surface is missing.

Object type: WEIGHT
Broad period: MEDIEVAL
County: Cheshire East
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Circular lead weight from the Medieval/Post Medieval period. It is circular in plan with a raised edge on both faces. The upper face has the Roman numerals IIII incised into it. It is thought this is meant to indicate 4 ounces and its weight, 100.2g would support this. These types of weight are very hard to date when found out of context as they could have been used throughout many periods.

Copper alloy figurine in the form of a lizard or possibly a crocodile. It is very worn and appears to be broken/incomplete at both ends. It has a linear, slightly curved body with 4 short legs. One of the legs has broken but all seem worn. At one end the body tapers towards a point and it is assumed this is the tail. At the opposite end there is a widening to give a globular shape, this is assumed to be the head. No details such as eyes or mouth are visible due to wear. Along the top of the body there are indications of decoration including incised horizontal lines but wear makes…

Copper alloy object of uncertain function probably Roman in date. It is linear in form, flat on the front with a central raised line on the reverse. The top half is in the shape of a vase (seen in plan), it then narrows for the lower half. Both ends appear broken. The lower terminal is beginning to curve before it is broken.

Cast copper alloy umbonate bridle boss from the 17th century. It is hexagonal in plan with a raised central circular boss which is 11mm high. It is hollow on the reverse. The flat outside edge is decorated with raised circles. There would have been 2 rivets to hold the boss in place, one at the top and one at the bottom, but these have broken away, leaving holes. The front of the boss is decorated with blue, white and red enamel in alternating sub-circular shapes. Some of the enamel is now missing so the pattern is incomplete. Similar items can be seen in Read, 1995, p. 149-151, nos. …
