A conical lead weight, possibly used as a spindle whorl or similar object of uncertain date. It has a flat back face and slightly flattened top with central circular aperture. This spindle whorl measures 26.02mm in diameter, 7.46mm in height, 19.47g in weight. There are similar examples from Suffolk recorded on the PAS database (SF-EFBE42), (SF-4DEBF3). This is a relatively simple cast lead spindle whorl that could be of any date from the Roman period onwards.

A complete stone spindle whorl of possible Anglo-Saxon or later date. It is plano-convex in form and made from a fine grained dark grey stone with large central circular perforation. The exterior surfaces have the remains of at least one circumferential groove. It measures 23.83mm in height, 35.21mm in diameter, the perforation has a maximum diameter of 11.45mm, and the entire object weighs 37.79g. This spindle whorl finds parallels in other examples recorded through the PAS from Norfolk and Suffolk of suggested Early-Medieval/Anglo-Saxon date (NMS-B4E236, NMS-C3AED5, SF-F0B730 or…

A cast lead spindle whorl of uncertain date. It is biconical in form with flattened top and bottom surfaces and central vertical circular aperture. There is no trace of any decoration, although the surfaces of the object are slightly faceted. It measures 14.60mm in height/thickness, 21.82mm in diameter, and 34.74g in weight. This is a cast lead spindle whorl of probable Medieval or later date, although an earlier date range cannot be ruled out entirely.

A cast lead spindle whorl of probable Medieval or later date. It is conical in form with slightly concave back face and flattened upper surface. At its centre is a large circular perforation. The exterior surfaces of the whorl appear to have slight moulded decoration, perhaps simply diagonal strokes but the precise form is uncertain due to the preservation of the object. It measures 29.26mm in diameter, 9.24mm in thickness and 35.48g in weight. This whorl is likely to date to the Medieval or later periods, perhaps c.13th-17th centuries AD.

A decorated cast lead spindle whorl of probable Medieval or later date. It is conical in form with flattened top and bottom surfaces and a central circular perforation. The exterior surfaces have moulded decoration comprising multiple vertical ribs radiating from the central perforation to outer edge. It measures 25.99m in diameter, 7.22mm in height and 24.02g in weight. Spindle whorls such as this are difficult to date precisely and the form had continued usage over a long period of time. The decorative elements of the current example suggest a probable Medieval date, although an ear…

A cast lead weight or spindle whorl of uncertain date. It is circular in form, oval sectioned with flat upper and lower faces. At the centre of the weight is a circular aperture. The entire object measures 23.16mm in diameter, 10.30mm in thickness and 34.11g in weight. This is a cast lead weight, probably a spindle whorl or similar. It may be of any date from the Roman period onwards, although a later date is perhaps most probable.

Likely to be a cast lead spindle whorl of uncertain date. It is slightly conical in form and sub-circular in plan. There is a significant circular hole at its centre. The base is smooth but the upper surface is pocked. The precise function is uncertain as it could conceivably be a weight or line sinker. Similarly, there is little diagnostic with which to date it meaning that it could date from the Roman period onwards. Similar, although cruder and undecorated, to SF-EFBE42. It measures 27.61mm in diameter, 7.75mm in thickness and weighs 24.72g.
