The foot tapers upwards into the lower part of the leg, the top of which is flat and has a projecting iron rivet in-situ. This rivet is also visible on the hollow underside of the object. It measures 22.2mm high by 20.1mm wide and 22.2mm wide. It weighs 15.98g. | Subjects: | Foot | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Watters, Julian - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
