The pot mend is comprised of a large circular disc and a bulbous shank and was used to mend a broken vessel in order to lengthen the period of use after damage had occurred. The gap between the two plates is narrow and contains the remains of a ceramic of pale orange fabric suggesting a medieval date for the mend.The metal is a mid brownish-white colour and is worn. The pot mend is 16mm long, 22.7mm in diameter and weighs 35.1g.
