Object type: WEIGHT
Broad period: MEDIEVAL
County: Cheshire West and Chester
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A complete cast lead or lead alloy weight, of probable Late Medieval to Post Medieval dating (1300 to 1800 AD).
The weight is sub oval in plan, and sub rectangular in profile / cross section. A hole has been created at the top of the weight, probably for suspension purposes.
It is a light to mid grey colour, with an even surface patina. Abrasion, probably caused by movement in the plough soil, has resulted in the loss of a significant proportion of the original surface.
It measures 26.98mm tall, is 12.87mm wide and 7.16mm thick. It weighs 13.0 grams (0.46 oz).

Remnants of a D shaped loop on the edge of the base are present. No cas…
