Description: | A fragment from a medieval/post-medieval (1100-1800) copper alloy cooking vessel, possibly an early form posnet, consisting of the incomplete foot. The fragment is broken irregularly across the lower part of the leg. The leg would have had a rectangular cross-section, widening slightly downwards, with a flat inner surface and terminating on the outer surface in a simple out-turned foot. The outer surface has a small central rib of hemispherical cross-section which extends to the end of the foot. The flat underside is rectangular in cross-section, and although incomplete at one corner due to wear, would measure 39.5mm x 17.9mm. It also has a central longitudinal groove. At the break the leg is 10.2mm thick.The fragment is 31.4mm tall and weighs 68.16g. All original surfaces are coated in a black residue.
