Description: | Cast copper alloy rim fragment from a receptacle, but with little curvature on the internal edge, suggesting that it was not a circular pot, but possibly ovoid or sub-rectangular. It seems to have little depth and may have been used as the rim of a wooden vessel, to strengthen it, as it has a rivet hole, half of which is missing, at one edge.
Geoff Egan comments that it is pretty robust and probably 18th century in date. | 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: | 1700
