Cast copper alloy weight, rectangular in plan and profile and section with a faint central circular stamp of a rose and crown and another rectangular stamp with a number ending in 7 on the upper face. The stamps would suggest a coin weight but the shape and size of the weight suggest that it may be an apothecary weight instead. If it is a coin weight, then it would have come from the Low Countries (Paul Withers pers comm). It weighs 26 g which almost equates to one ounce averdupois.

A copper-alloy Apothecary weight of probable post-medieval date. For similar examples, see Biggs, 1994, pp. 7. The weight is sub-rectangular in plan, having rounded corners, and is of thin section. Both sides bear stamped merchant's marks. On one side are three letters (possibly 'IOS') within an oval border; below this is a monogram containing the letters 'SA'. On the other side is a number '8' above a monogram containing 'RX' and at the bottom is what appears to be a number, possibly (?the date) '1698'. The object measures 21.3mm high, 18.6m wide and 1.7mm thick. The weight is 4.32g.

Small cast copper alloy weight, weighing approximately 1/4oz. Stamps include an 'R' and a crown, with 'II' possibly representing Charles II. A fourth stamp looks like a small 'a' or 'd'. The weight does appear to have been overstamped at a later date. It is post-medieval in date.

A stamped lead weight from the post-medieval period. This weight is flat with a raised rim around the edge of the weight. The weight weighs 3.8oz.

A similar example to this lead weight can be seen in Biggs and Withers, 2000, pp54, Fig. 5.
