Description: | Cast copper alloy pot leg and foot with an old break at the attachment end. The leg is sub-triangular in profile widening towards the foot and rectangular in section with a central rib on the concave front. When the foot is flat the leg sits at an approximately 100 degree angle. The foot is trapezoid shaped in plan with a wider front than back and the central rib on the front flattens out just above the base. There are traces of sooting on all but the broken upper edge. Such items are difficult to date precisely as crude cast copper alloy cooking vessels were popular from c.1250-1650 AD and were often repaired and reused over time.
