A complete cast biconical lead alloy spindle whorl of Medieval or post-Medieval date. Description: On one side, the whorl is decorated with simply incised zig-zag line decoration, mostly single lines, some in pairs. The central perforation is sub-square in profile and 8mm across, which may suggest a medieval date (Walton Rogers, 1997, p.1731). Measurements: Height: 10.61 mm; Weight: 12.57 g; Diameter: 16.23 mm
