Description: | A cast, copper alloy foot and part of the leg from a cooking vessel, Medieval or Post Medieval in date. The leg is roughly D-shaped in section with a convex back and flattened front. There is an old, regular break at the upper end and the fragment widens at the opposite end in a turned out triangular shaped foot. There is a raised central rib running down the front of the leg and onto the foot. It is 42.3mm in length, 55.0mm in width, 34.7mm in thickness and weighs 147g. A parallel can be seen on this database in SOM-CBD395.Butler, Green and Payne (2009, pg 4) suggest that turned out, simple feet are characteristic of Medieval vessels (type a), although examples are known from the 17th century. | Publisher: | http://finds.org.uk | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Identifier: | http://finds.org.uk/database/artefacts/r... | Go to resource |
