Description: | Leg or handle from a cast copper alloy cooking vessel. The long bar like piece is D shaped in section with one flat and one convex side and tapers in width and thickness from the end attached to the vessel to the other end where it finished in an old break. There is a worn break around the attachment end as well. There are traces of sooting, especially by the attachment end. It is very slender for a pot leg and may have been part of a handle. It is 58.4mm long and 13.9mm by 18.5mm at the attachment end excluding the remaining part of the vessel wall and 11.1mm by 4.6mm at the broken end; it weighs 42.39g.Butler et al (2009: 1) suggest vessels of this type were in use c.1100-1750 AD.
