Cast copper alloy fragment of the body of a cauldron from the side of the vessel where it is relatively straight sided. There is a single raised, rounded cordon, 47 mm long and 6 mm thick, that runs horizontally along the body fragment, just below and almost parallel to the upper broken edge. These ribs are similar to the wire moulding on a cauldron made by the Sturton Foundry and a Westcountry cauldron illustrated by Butler and Green (2003) on pages 107 & 165, nos.97 & 170, which are dated from the 15th to the 17th century. The straight-sided shape of the vessel wall suggests that is…

Object type: BUCKLE
Broad period: MEDIEVAL
County: Dorset
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Incomplete cast copper alloy double-loop annular buckle, circular in plan with two semi-circular loops, and with a bevelled inside edge so that the profile and section is D-shaped. There is an integral narrowed pin bar across the centre of the frame which also has bevelled sides so that it is almost triangular in section, which is 22 mm long and 2 mm wide. The pin that would have wrapped around this bar is now missing. Whitehead (1996) illustrates a similar annular buckle with a bevelled inner edge on page 44, no.252, which is dated from c.1350-1650.
