Description: | The object is possibly a cooking pot leg, made of cast copper alloy. The leg is probably of later Medieval to early Post Medieval period. The leg in section is a sub-triangle. In plan the lower portion is an invert trapezoidal shape with a rounded narrow edge. The opposite edge is not straight, but is an inverted 'V' shape. On the reverse of the 'V' shape the leg is not triangular in section, but is obliquely angled and forms a portion of the interior of the vessel. This interior surface is very smooth, whereas the rest of the leg is rough and has carbon deposits. The surface of the leg has traces of a mid green patina. Otherwise it is slightly abraded. It weighs 237g, and measures 71.9mm long, 26.5mm thick and 51.9mm wide.
