Description: | Late Medieval to post Medieval cast copper alloy vessel foot (pot leg). The leg is a splayed C shape in section with a slightly concaved back and convex front. The prominent collar is plain in design and rounded in section, being more semi-cylindrical in section than C-shaped. The lower part of the leg, forming the foot flares outwards and then back in towards the base, giving it curved (convex) sides. The foot is C-shaped in section but with four raised ribs running down the front. Crudely made cast copper alloy vessels were widely used from c.1200-1700 for serving and cooking. this example probably dates c.1500-1700.
