ball and chain
A ball and chain was a physical restraint device historically applied to prisoners, primarily in the British Empire and its former colonies, from the 17th century until as late as the mid-20th century.
A ball and chain believed to date to the 17th century was found in the United Kingdom in 2009. It consists of a sphere of high-grade iron approximately across and weighing around . The chain is of some in length and terminates in a leg iron or shackle. The weight of the ball makes it difficult for the restrained person to walk.
