Baking beans
From Cookipedia
Baking beans are round balls, often ceramic, that are used in the blind-baking of pastry instead of peas, beans or rice. When baking the pastry is covered by baking paper and the beans then placed on top of the paper, the beans allow the even distribution of heat through the pastry to allow it to cook equally throughout.
In the UK I had trouble finding baking beans in large supermarkets but the 'hardware' stores, Wilkinsons & Robert Dyas both sell them and they are also available on the web :Ceramic baking beans from Decuisine.co.uk
