Title
An iron medieval to post medieval sword or knife pommel.
Description
English: A cast iron pommel from a sword or dagger probably dating from the late medieval to post medieval periods. On the top of the pommel there is a sub circular terminal, 11mm in diameter, from which the upper surface expands, forming an octagonal surface which meets a central ridge; the surface is formed of eight flat facets giving the octagonal shape. The central ridge is 34mm in diameter and is rounded and shows some signs of post depositional damage. From this ridge the pommel has another octagonal surface which narrows to a sub rectanglar collar which surrounds the broken attachment end. The pommel is 32mm long and weighs 93.4g.
