Title |
Medieval to Post Medieval: Lead alloy weight |
||
Description |
English: Cast lead or lead alloy weight of probable late Medieval or Post Medieval date (1350 - 1700).
The weight is sub-circular in plan and sub-triangular shaped (conical) in cross section. The exterior surface is uneven and abraded; there is no evidence of cast or applied decoration. An irregular cast hole is present at the top of the weight. The ends of an iron rod are present half way down the sides, this would have presumably aided suspension. The base of the weight is irregular, with the remains of a stamped impression, with a crown above and two suns below.
The weight is a mid grey colour with a relatively even, but slightly corroded and abraded, patina that covers all surfaces. A direct parallel for this weight has not been found. It is most likely to date from the later medieval or post medieval periods.
The weight measures 45.00mm in diameter at the base and is 46.39mm high. It weighs 299.43grams or 10.5 ounces. |
