Description: | A fragment of a cast iron probable scabbard, probably dating from the Post Medieval period, between AD 1600 ? 1900 (length: 195mm; width: 39mm; thickness: 16mm; weight: 152.61g). The scabbard fragment is broken at both ends and is sub rectangular in plan and sub-lozenge shaped in section. The majority of the scabbard appears to be hollow inside although there is a large amount of earth present. On either side, there is a prominent single ridge running down the central length of the scabbard, where the inside of the scabbard is at its widest. Overall, the artefact is in a worn and corroded condition. | 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: | 1600
