Object type: COIN WEIGHT
Broad period: POST MEDIEVAL
County: Cumbria
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Cast cu-alloy coin weight, probably dating to the 17th century. While the reverse is plain, the obverse bears a decoration similar to some German 'Nuremberg' reckoning tokens of the time: A square shield within three parallel circular borders which are interrupted by three sharp points. In the centre of the shield appears to be a cross which could mean that it made in London or authenticated in London.

Object type: SPINDLE WHORL
Broad period: ROMAN
County: Cumbria
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Cast lead spindle whorl. No decoration. The perforation is 11 mm diameter.
It has been noted that the weight of a spindle whorl is demonstrative of the thickness of yarn produced, with lighter spindle whorls (3-5 grams) being used for spinning cotton and the heavier ones (30-35 grams) for spinning wool (Margeson 1993, page 184). This example weighs 31.7 grams, so it seems likely that it would have been used to spin a heavy material such as wool.

Record ID: LANCUM-EDD681
Object type: BUCKLE
Broad period: POST MEDIEVAL
County: Cumbria
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Cast copper alloy post-medieval (Georgian) sub-rectangular shoe buckle with rounded ends and a drilled frame for a separate spindle. The loop chape is broken although would have had two internal spikes and the pitchfork tongue is present.
Shoe buckles increased in size after 1720 and after 1770 the fixing arrangements became more elaborate with a double looped chape, therefore it is probable that this example dates between 1720 and 1770.
