Found this harness mount piece, medieval to post medieval and a partial spindle whorl I believe is more than 1100 years old. I’m not sure if the whorl is made of stone or a grey clay. 35mm in diameter. Any help? Obverse.

Side view. I have several other finds I’ll try to get posted. Have been detecting near a castle where a town once stood, built in 1107. HH, Mike
