Four fragments of copper alloy metal working debris, probably dating to c. AD 1500-1700 by association with other material in the vicinity. The fragments are irregular in size and shape, with three fragments collectively weighing 86.76g, and with the fourth weighing in excess of 200g. A small sample of a larger body of similar material found on the same site, a number of Post-Medieval pot legs have also been found in the vicinity (DEV-7F1E00, DEV-7F00E7, DEV-7EED86, DEV-7E790C) possibly suggesting activity relating to foundaries and the recycling of copper alloy.

A small assemblage of copper alloy vessel fragments and casting waste, probably dating to c. AD 1500-1800. Part of a larger assemblage also recovered in the same area, see also DEV-7416D4. This record includes two irregular fragments of copper alloy working waste (weight: 74.8g; 16.8g), a vessel rim fragment with expanded, angular rim (77.1g) and a probable pot leg fragment of Butler, Green & Payne's type A (12.2g). The large amounts of similarly dated fragmentary copper alloy objects and casting waste may relate to recycling activities for a foundry, with examples known locally …
