Description: | A copper alloy link from a chain, probably dating form the Post Medieval or Modern period. The single surviving link is rectangular and seems to have been stamped from a sheet of the metal. It is rectangular in section and has a rectangular slot in the centre. At each end, a tiny fragment of the next link survives. These seems to be made of copper alloy wire, but only the part of the links inside the rectangular link survive. There are no similar chains on the PAS database, but some modern chains have similar construction which could suggest a quite late date for this example. It has a dark green patina with some areas of dark grey.
