Record ID: DUR-50D777
Object type: WEIGHT
Broad period: ROMAN
County: North Yorkshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Cast lead possible Roman weight.
It is cylindrical, with a central iron core, which would have become a loop, but has now broken.
Roman steelyward weights are usually biconical, not cylindrical but this example does have the iron core like the Roman ones, so it is possible it is Roman rather than Post Medieval.

Lead Roman steelyard weight.
It is bi-conical in shape with a rounded iron attachment loop set in the top. The weight is not symmetrical and the surface is uneven, possibly through being poorly made, or possibly from damage.

Object type: WEIGHT
Broad period: ROMAN
County: Stockton-on-Tees
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Lead weight, possibly Roman in date.
It is conical in shape with a rounded top and slightly irregular. The flat edge is the upper face and this has a central depression- possibly where an attachment loop once was. The surface is irregular all over due either to corrosion or poor casting of the weight.
It was too heavy for my scales which go up to 200g. It has a length/height of 43.36mm and a diameter of 41.70mm.

Record ID: LVPL-9D44F0
Object type: WEIGHT
Broad period: ROMAN
County: Warrington
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Cast lead weight, possibly Roman- Medieval in date.
It is conical in shape with a slightly rounded pointed terminal. There is a hole in the base. The surface is uneven and there are some marks where it has been scratched by the plough. There is no sign of an attachment loop so it is unlikely to have been used as a steelyard weight.
Weights of this shape and size were used over many periods and so it it difficult to date them more precisely when found out of context.

Cast lead circular weight with stamped symbols on the front- II. The front face has a raised rim. The back face is flat
Possibly Roman but no study has been done on excavated weights so it is not possible to say for definite.

Circular lead weight which has the Roman numberals VIII inscribed in the top surface. In section the weight is domed. It is possible this is Roman due to the numerals but no typology has been made of weights from known contexts so it is difficult to assign a specific date.

Object type: LID
Broad period: ROMAN
County: North Yorkshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Possible lid or cap made of lead, probably Roman.
The top of the object is circular in plan and there is a raised edge. Inside the raised edge, in relief, is an animal, possibly a cockerel. On the back the edges have folded in on themselves so they would no longer fit as a lid.
