Description: | The object is probably a leg/foot off a cooking vessel. It is made from cast copper alloy. Copper alloy cooking vessels, according to Geake (2001), date from the mid 13th to 16th centuries.
In plan the leg is a sub-rectangle, with both terminals having broken edges. These breaks do not appear to be recent. In section the leg is a sub semi-circle. The surface of the leg has a patchy brown/green patina with patches of a black deposit, possibly carbon/soot.
The leg is 34.15mm long, 32.27mm wide and 12.08mm thick. It weighs 56.97g. | Subjects: | Leg | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Bolton, Angie - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
