Record ID: LVPL-966DB0
Object type: SPINDLE WHORL
Broad period: MEDIEVAL
County: York
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation Find awaiting validation
A lead spindle-whorl of Medieval date. It is a circular spindle whorl with a central circular hole. It is decorated with pellets and lines on both sides. One face of the object has been damaged, probably due to the plough. It has a light brown patina and has been crudely made. Similar examples of spindle whorls have reportedly been found in contexts dated from the Roman through to the Post-Medieval period although the majority are typically dated broadly to the Medieval period c.1100-1500.

Object type: WEIGHT
Broad period: MEDIEVAL
County: Blackpool

A cast lead alloy weight of probable Medieval or Post-medieval date. It is a discoid weight with the numeral I inscribed on one side. Lead weights are common throughout the Medieval and Post-Medieval period. Biggs, N. & Withers, P. (2000) note that weights of this type with numerals are consistent with the Roman weight-system as well as the averdepois system, thus they could equally be 16th century. Given the growing number of these lead weights being found in the North West, it is more probable that these weights are significantly later in date (17th to 18th Centuries AD). Other e…

An incomplete cast lead-alloy object of uncertain date. It is sub-rectangular in shape and curves to one side and narrows slightly towards this curve. One face is decorated with a series of interlocking lines, the other is too covered by rust particles to be certain. There are three separately cast circular iron rivets in situ, two at the wider end, the other at the narrowed end. It is possible that this was a mount of some sort. Alternatively it could be the handle from a relatively modern toy pistol. This object has not been seen by the recorder and was identified from the photograp…
