Description: | IronKey. Rotary key for a door, with oval bow, stem of square section - though this may arise from the flaking of corrosion - which protrudes as a more rounded spike from the bit, which bears a single cleft expanded horizontally at the mid-point of bit. The form was long-lasting; the bow is oval rather than kidney-shaped, which may hint at a later date. Suggested date: Late Medieval, 1350-1500. Length: 143.9mm, Width (bow): 45.7mm, Thickness: 8.3mm, Weight: 67.84gms.
