Description: | A broken and incomplete copper alloy vessel leg, probably from an ewer and dating from the late Medieval or Early Post Medieval periods. The leg is triangular in section and is 82.3mm long, 40.4mm wide and 15.3mm thick. One end is an old break and the bottom of the leg flares into a foot which becomes more rectangular. The top of the leg appears broken as the back is missing, and only the front of the leg proceeds upwards. Two faces of the leg are fluted and the third is undecorated and fairly flat. Parallels of ewers with three legs can be seen in the Finds Research Group Datasheet 7; Bronze Aquamaniles and Ewers (1987) by J M Lewis. They date from the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries.
