Description: | Cast copper alloy cauldron leg and foot, with a central rib vertically running down the foot, and the remains of two other ribs either side of it. The short section of leg above the foot has three ridges, set back from the missing collar, and showing signs of melting, along with the 'toe' end of the foot. The foot has been moulded into a spreading hoof, semi-circular in section and triangular in profile. Butler and Green (2003) illustrate similar examples on cauldrons with ridged legs on pages 102 & 144, Nos.85 & 149, which are dated to the 17th century.
