Object type: WEIGHT
Broad period: POST MEDIEVAL
County: Darlington
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Cast lead weight from the Medieval- Post Medieval periods. It is tear-drop shaped and the extended end has a circular cross section. There are some scratches on the surface, probably plough damage. It weighed more than 200g and so my scales could not weigh it. Generic weights such as this are difficult to date precisely when found as stray finds.

Lead Post Medieval sack seal. It is circular in plan with raised designs on both faces and a raised border. One face has the letters 'SVR' but the rest is missing, this may be the name of the manufacturer or supplier. The other face has a wiggly line. There are two holes running through the seal, these would have allowed the seal to be fastened to the sack.
