Description: | The object is a foot of a cooking vessel. These cooking vessels, according to Geake, date from the mid 13th to 16th centuries.
The foot is cast copper alloy. Only approximately half of the foot remains. The base of the foot is a sub-oblong shape that has one broken edge. This break is not recent. In profile the leg is a sub ?L?-shape with the interior angle forming a concave curve. The upper edge of the foot is also broken, and again it is not a recent break. The surface of the leg has a green/brown coloured patina with patches of carbon deposits.
The leg measures 20.37mm tall, 29.68 wide across the foot and 26.75mm wide. It weighs 54.5g. | 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: | 1250
