Description: | Medieval copper alloy padlock barrel, 26mm long, 21 mm wide and 11mm thick. The object is in fair condition with a brown patina and weighs 7.63grams. It is incomplete and consists of a sub rectangular 'barrel' which is decorated on its two outer sides with two raised vertical bands. At one edge it has a rectangular protrusion with a central circular hole. On the outside of this, runing parallel to the barrel are the remains of the bar, which has snapped off just beyond the rectangle it sits on. On the other end of the same face is a rectangular recess which would have allowed the spring mechanism to sit within the barrel. The object is the same as fig. 245 P92 in Egan, G. The medieval household | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Scott, Wendy - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
