Description: | A corroded and damaged copper-alloy barrel tap spout. The fragment of the tap spout which remains is the tube which is inserted into the barrel. This is originally cylindrical in section so is convex on the exterior and concave on the interior. The edges of the barrel are all broken, but not recently. The exterior of the spout has horizontal striations. The surface of the barrel tap spout has a mid green patina. It measures 31.15mm long, 2717.51mm wide, 1.68mm thick and weighs 5.6g.A tap of probable contemporary date can be found illustrated in Bailey (1995, 62; ref. 16). This example probably dates to between 1600 and 1800.
