Description: | The leg is from a cast copper alloy cooking vessel. In plan it is a sub-rectangle, with the shorter edges forming the vertical side edges. The upper edge is obliquely angled and is quite smooth. Therefore this is could be in the interior of the vessel. In profile the leg is triangular tapering towards the base. The reverse of the leg is flat and relatively straight whereas the front face is pitted, has heavier black carbon deposits. There are also traces of the black deposits on the front of the leg, sides and on the obliquely angled face which is thought to be the interior of the leg. The leg measures 43mm tall, 54.83mm wide across the foot and 25.07mm thick. It weighs 135.26g.These cooking vessels, according to Geake (Geake, H. 2001 Finds Recording Guide unpublished), date from the mid 13th to 16th centuries.
