Description: | A fragment of a copper alloy vessel of uncertain date. Overall, the fragment measures 54.6mm long, 25.8mm wide and 3.9mm thick. It weighs 19.48g. The fragment is from the rim of the vessel. The lip of the rim is very simple, with a curving taper from the inner surface. The lip is slightly thicker than the main wall thickness, at 3.9mm instead of 2.5mm. The lower surface of the fragment is blackened with soot from a fire, indicating this is probably from a cooking vessel. The curve of the fragment suggests that the complete rim would have had a diameter of between 240mm and 300mm with this fragment forming between 5% and 7.5% of the rim.
