Description: | An incomplete Medieval to post-Medieval cast copper-alloy cooking vessel leg (c. 1250-c. 1650).The leg is sub-triangular in section. The corners are rounded. The base of the foot is at a slight angle, sloping upwards towards the back. The leg is broken along a horizontal axis. It is ribbed vertically and has a single horizontal rib. The area below the horizontal rib expands, suggesting a 'paw'.Cast cooking vessels seem to have come into use in the second half of the 13th century and to have continued at least until c. 1600 (Geake 2001, 52).Butler, R., Green, C., Payne, N., FRG Datasheet 41: Cast copper-alloy cooking vessels, Datasheet 41.
