A strip of copper alloy sheet metal, with the remains of two iron rivets, probably a vessel repair of Medieval dating (Mid 12th to 15th Centuries AD).
The repair is sub-rectangular in plan and rectangular in cross section. It consists of a strip of copper alloy sheet metal, with straight edges both at the top and the sides. The lower edge exhibits a shallow curve with the corners rounded. Two reddish circular marks are present, presumably the remains of two iron rivets used to attach the repair to the original vessel.
The repair is mid green colour, apart from the iron rivet remains which are a reddish brown colour, with an even surface patina. The front demonstrates a smoother surface than the back, with pale green areas present.
It measures 49.36mm in width, 18.04mm deep and 2.29mm thick. The rivet holes have a diameter of 5.4mm. It weighs 11.7 grams.
The vessel repair would have been used to repair a small split on a sheet copper alloy cooking vessel. A similar example was published by Egan (1998, pp176, #494) and was dated from the mid 12th to late 15th Centuries AD.

An incomplete cast copper alloy handle or possible foot / leg from a copper alloy cooking vessel of Late Medieval to Early Post Medieval dating (1400 - 1700 AD).
The vessel fragment is sub rectangular in plan and sub triangular in cross section. It consists of a cast bar with a sub triangular, almost rounded cross section, attached to a flat plate (vessel wall). The plate has been attached at an angle of approximately 45 degrees. The opposing end of the bar from the plate exhibits an old break.
It is a dark green colour, with areas of light green (active) corrosion present. The surface has been badly abraded and is covered by a mid to dark brown concretion of minerals. This type of surface concretion tends to occur in waterlogged deposits. The areas of active corrosion should be monitored to reduce the risk of future deterioration, and the vessel fragment should be stored in a dry acid-free environment (stewart box, acid-free tissue and silica gel).
It measures 46.63mm in length, 22.29mm wide (at the plate end), 15.73mm at the break end and 24.20mm thick. It weighs 56.2 grams.
Looking at the vessel fragment, the angle of the attached vessel wall is more indicative of a L-shaped handle or lug than a foot / leg. There are no signs of any moulding for the vessel foot / leg. However with the break present towards the base of the fragment, then it is still possible that it is a foot / leg as opposed to a handle. It is similar in style to that depicted in Fig 3(a), pp5 of Butler et al (2009). Handles of this style date from between 1100 AD and 1700 AD, but the majority date from the Late Medieval Period to the Early Medieval period (1400 until 1700 AD).
