Description: | Copper alloy escutcheon. Cast concavo-convex baluster or urn-shaped hollow pivoting mount with a rounded and probably solid upper end, intended to close and cover a keyhole. The function is indicated by a fragment of a flat plate which would be set around the keyhole and a short pin of diameter 5mm which passes through it with a burred end, upon which the escutcheon would turn. The style is severely Neo-Classical, with a billeted band around the lower constriction. Suggested date: Post-Medieval, 1720-1820.Length: 53.4mm, Width: 21.7mm, Thickness (wall): 2.4mm, Weight: 20.06gms.
