Weight. Cast circular disc with notches. (No image available.) Weight 9.04g (other dimensions not recorded). (Report by Susan M. Youngs, formerly British Museum). This object is most similar to weight 11 from Gilton, Kent, Grave 66 (Scull 1990, fig. 2), one of the few weight-sets to have been found in grave. When found individually, such things can be impossible to identify reliably (Hinton 2000, 63-6 and 111-2); in this case, the notches enabled the identification to be made. At 9.04 g, the disc is within a reasonable tolerance of seven times a unit of 1.3 g, based on Merovingi…

A small cast lead weight of later medieval date used by goldsmiths in relation to bullion. It is rectangular in form with inwardly curving sides. The upper surface is filled by a fleur-de-lis in low relief; the lower surface is plain. The object now has an off-white colour. Its mass of 55.9 grains (3.62g) relates to an eighth of a Paris troy ounce (30.5g) allowing for c. 5% loss to to wear and corrosion. The form and mass are comparable with a pair of bullion weights illustrated in Biggs and Withers (2000, 49; refs. 156, 157) and an example on this database - ref. SF-8F1591.

Flat circular lead weight with a piercing 3.3mm in diameter near one edge. It is c.37mm in diameter and thicker (6mm) at the end opposite the piercing (4mm). It weighs 54.20g. It would be unusual to wear a lead pendant and this is probably a weight intended for suspension. It is probably post medieval in date.

Irregular conical shaped lead weight. The weight has a sub-circular shaped base (Diameter c28.3mm) which has a crude, thick, irregular rim, which appears to be formed from excess lead that has folded over the base, and a sub-oval recessed area in the centre which is flat. The weight is crudely made and has four, now heavily worn, longitudinal ridges, running from the base of the object to the apex, so that they form an X-shape when viewed from above. Where the ridges meet, at the apex of the conical, there is a small, U-shaped corroded iron attachment loop.
