Description: | A leg from a cast copper alloy cooking vessel of medieval or post-medieval date. The leg measures 48.1mm in length, 27.9mm in width and 17.5mm in thickness. It weighs 98g. The cross-section is D-shaped, with a flat back and a slightly curving front moulded with five vertical ribs. The central rib is wider than the others. The base is flat. From the base the leg starts to narrow slightly but widens again after about 28mm. Just above this wider section, on which there are seven slightly diagonal ribs, the break has occurred. The leg would have been one of three on the complete vessel.
