Description: | A corroded copper-alloy fragment: a foot small enough to be from a medieval tripod ewer, although it belonging to a small cooking vessel cannot be ruled out. The foot has a sub-oval footprint, with rounded front, flared sides and flat back; the same is true of the cross-section at the break, although the sides are less flared. The foot forms an obtuse angle of approximately 120 degress with the leg. The old break has occurred before the leg begins. The foot is corroded but may have been pad-like, formed of four 'toes'. The artefact now has a dark-grey colour with large areas of light-green corrosion product. There is a loss to the front of the foot, to one side.
