Description: | Iron unidentified object fragment. Cast shard with an everted triangular- section projection, possibly a rim, and a thicker part at right angles, possibly from a vessel wall. The finder kindly suggests an alternative, if related, identification as a pot leg fragment. The use of cast iron leaves a rather limited range of possibilities: until the 19th century it was used mainly for the barrels or projectiles of early guns; an origin from more recent drainage ironworks or piping is equally possible. Suggested date: Post-Medieval, 1500-1900.Height: 25.3mm, Thickness: 12.9mm, Weight: 54.19gms.
