Unique ID: YORYM-027936
Object type certainty: Certain
Workflow
status: Awaiting validation 
A fragment of a cast copper alloy pot leg from a copper alloy vessel. The fragment consists of the leg and not the foot, as this has been broken off. The object has a flat, rectangular section with a central vertical ridge running up the centre. The reverse is undecorated. The surface is extremely pitted and worn, as is the break. It has a light brownish-green patina. Due to a lack of context it is not possible to closely date this object, although it is medieval to post medieval in date.
