An incomplete cast lead or lead alloy weight, of probable Medieval dating (1300 to 1550 AD). The weight is an irregular cylinder in plan, and sub circular in profile / cross section.

Object type: FINGER RING
Broad period: POST MEDIEVAL
County: Trafford
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A complete cast copper alloy finger ring, probably of Early Post Medieval dating (1500-1700). The hoop is D shaped in cross section, being rounded to the external (outside edge). No bezel is present. The finger ring is a mid to dark green colour, with patches of a dark green surface patina present. This patina is likely to be the original surface, the majority of which has been removed due to abrasion occuring as a result of movement within the plough soil. The loss of the original surface does mean that if the ring was originally decorated, no trace of the decoration is no…
