POST MEDIEVAL WEIGHT
Complete cast lead alloy circular disc shaped weight. The weight is flat on the bottom, has slightly tapered sides and then is mostly flat on the top with a raised dome shaped pellet in the centre. The weight weighs 80.6g which corresponds to almost 3oz. The item probably formed part of a set of weights but lead weights were employed for many purposes so it is difficult to suggest a precise use…
