Description: | A Medieval or Post Medieval (12th to mid 19th centuries) cooking vessel such as a cauldron or skillet.The fragment has a triangular cross section with a rounded angular foot and a broken upper edge. This break is not recent. The internal face is flat and the external face has five vertical linear mouldings at the base. This decoration gives the impression of toes on the foot.The surface has a mottled mid to dark green coloured patina. Egan (1998) comments that commonly used cooking vessels in the Medieval period include skillets, ewers, and cauldrons. This foot would have been one of three on a complete vessel.The leg measures 37.39mm tall, 37.8mm wide and 20.86mm thick. It weighs 97.7 grams.Egan G. (1998) The Medieval Household Daily Living c. 1150-c.1450 Museum of London, London, The Stationary Office.
