Description: | A handle fragment from a cast copper-alloy cooking vessel, possibly a cauldron, of probable Medieval date. The lower half of the handle is preserved, with a small area of the vessel wall attached to its base. It is oval in section and tapers slightly before turning at an angle of 45 degrees to return to the rim of the vessel before terminating in old breaks. The exterior surfaces are blackened. The entire fragment measures 70.11mm in length, 17.89mm in width, 13.15mm in thickness and 61.42g in weight. This is a handle fragment probably from a cauldron of Medieval date and similar to an example from London (Egan, 1998: no. 446). It is of probable 14th-15th century AD date, if not slightly later. | Publisher: | http://finds.org.uk | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Identifier: | http://finds.org.uk/database/artefacts/r... | Go to resource |
