Anyone have any idea what this is? It has some weight to it.

Thanks for the replies so far. I'd doubt it's part of an iron fence since they used stone for their fences on this site and they're still around in places.

Plumb bob is a good guess!

It took me 2 months to ID an ox knob once. Stay with it.....use the force if you have to......but that is definitely something. Find out what it is and let us know

It's a perfect candidate for electrolysis! Clean it up and post more pics.
