Description: | An incomplete cast copper-alloy object: probably a vessel handle of post-medieval date. The object is in the shape of a hook with an extension at 90degrees on the left hand side. The object has a semi-circular cross-section with a flat back and rounded front. On the front (rounded) face the object is decorated with six fairly equally spaced punched rings, over the curved part of the arm. There is no decoration on the straight extension. The object has a dark brown/green patina. A combination of metal and decoration suggests a probable late medieval or post-medieval date. The exact function of the object is unsure, although it may have come from a large vessel such as a chafing dish or platter.
