A worn and corroded lead-alloy weight of probable Post Medieval date (c. AD 1550-1800). The weight is circular in plan and flat in section, with slightly tapering sides. On the upper surface, a single motif, probably an 8 pointed star or petalled flower is visible but now worn; the underside is plain. It has a mid white-grey colour overall. Plain weights were cast locally in lead from the Roman period onwards and are hard to date precisely, although most are late Medieval to Post Medieval. The decoration on this particular example suggests a Post Medieval date. This weight measur…

A worn and corroded lead-alloy weight in the form of a seal matrix of probable Medieval to Post Medieval date. The weight is formed of a fluted hexagonal in plan body which tapers out to form a now sub-circular in plan die; it is probable that this die was previously hexagonal in plan but the defined edges have been removed through extensive abrasion. At the uppermost portion of the narrowed fluted body is a small oval aperture which pierces the body to form a narrowed attachment loop. On the base of the weight is an inscription, which might possibly represent a Roman numeral 'II' or …

A complete but worn and corroded lead-alloy steelyard weight of probable Roman date (c. AD 43-410). The weight is circular in plan and conical in form, with a circular suspension loop of iron extending from the flattened apex (15.5mm in length, 13.1mm in diameter); the aperture of the loop has been concealed by extensive corrosion product. The iron that forms this loop also appears to extend through the entire body of the weight, as traces of red brown corrosion are visible at the point of the conical form. This artefact has corroded to a white colour overall and weighs 30.91 grams.

A worn and corroded lead-alloy weight of possible Post Medieval date. The weight is circular in plan and flat in section. On one side a castle is depicted with an illegible legend in a banner underneath, and this might represent a coat of arms. It measures 29.1 mm in diameter and is 4.3 mm thick and weighs 23.34 grams. The inclusion of this particular castle motif might suggest a Post Medieval to early Modern date.
