Two perforated lead weights, both with flat bases: a) conical weight with truncated upper terminal and irregular-shaped base. It has an hexagonal-shaped perforation, base 24.6mm x 23.33mm, height 19.1mm, weight 34.24g. b) plano-convex shape with approximately circular base and roughly square-shaped perforation, base 23.72mm x 21.95mm, height 2.42mm, weight 33.49g. Weights such as these could have been used for spindle whorls (b) or fishing weights. They most likely date to medieval to Post-medieval periods.

A circular lead weight of possible medieval date. It is a disc 29.8mm in diameter across one surface expanding to 32.75mm in diameter across the other, and 8.7mm in thickness. It weighs 68.5g. The centre of the larger surface has traces of a design which suggests that it could be an example of the thirteenth century 'floriate cross' type of weight. The surviving pattern is, however, too indistinct to be certain.
