Description: | Incomplete copper alloy vessel leg, probably from a cauldron or skillet. Only the base, or foot, remains. This has three parallel lobes, seperated by grooves on the outer face with a flat reverse. The foot is trapezoidal in cross section. The object is very worn and the break at the top has become well rounded. The metal is greenish brown in colour and fairly pitted. Butler et al. (2009, pp.4&6) suggest that this was one of the earlier forms of vessel foot, in use during the Medieval period and perhaps as late as the 17th century.Length: 24.21mm, Width: 46.56mm, Thickness: 27.69mm
