Description: | A cast copper-alloy handle from a Late Medieval to post-Medieval posnet.The solid-cast object curves downwards from the point of attachment to the distal end, the width gradually decreasing along its length. The handle is of 'D-shaped' section, its flat upper surface decorated with a line of five punched ring-and-dot marks (two incomplete). The distal end has a casting flaw, and the underside of the handle is also heavily pitted from bubbles in the casting.Length: 89.7mm; width: 23.6mm; thickness: 9.9mm. Weight: 108.25g.A similar handle, from Wilbarston, Northamptonshire, is illustrated by Butler, Green and Payne (2009: fig. 3c; PAS record NARC-A77323).
