Description: | Medieval copper alloy pot leg, 61mm long and 17mm wide. The object is in good condition with a green patina and weighs 42.31 grams. The leg is quite ornate and consists of a lozenge sectioned shaft with four distinct edges. It has a tapering upper edge, presumably to accomodate the curve of the vessel, and appears to retain traces of the vessel itself. The object curves forwards, forming a raised heel. From here the animal-form foot emerges and consists of three surfaces which taper outwards and then turn on themselves to form a flattened 'pad' which has four rounded 'toes'.
