A copper-alloy lug from a vessel of Medieval or Post-Medieval date, c. 1400-1700. The lug is tongue-shaped, connected to a rectangular block of the original vessel wall/rim set at right angles to the axis of the lug itself. It demonstrates a large circular aperture at its midpoint. Preserved in fair condition with an even greenish patina, it measures 17.96mm long, 20.85mm wide at its widest point, and 8.29mm thick at its midpoint. It weighs 5.61g. Similar lugs are recorded on the PAS database as LIN-6D0797, LEIC-8442B6 and SOM-7D2F31. These may originate from skillet-like vessels.
