Description: | Copper alloy padlock case fragment. The case is rectangular in section but swells in the centre when viewed from above or below. The bottom face is decorated with incised rocker lines which follow the margins and form a double wave along the centre. A flat pieced bar projects from the top at one end but is broken at the junction with the cross piece and the other end of the case is damaged. Surviving length 27mm, height of case 9mm, width of case at bulge 14mm, overall surviving height 21mm.
A padlock from a 15th-century context in Winchester (Biddle 1990, no. 3666) is similar, but with a rectangular rather than a swollen case. Compare NLM-B38528, NLM2785 and SF7242. | Format: | text/html | License: | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/ | Publisher: | The Portable Antiquities Scheme | Rights holder: | The Portable Antiquities Scheme | Subjects: | archaeology | Temporal: | 1100
