Medieval Padlock |

| Description |
English: A Medieval barrel padlock. A cast copper alloy barrel padlock case of 12th or 13th century date. The case is a short round cylinder with a broad, flat, upright arm extending from the top at one end, attached to a narrow, tapering bar of circular cross-section which extends back over the whole length of the case. The case has a T shaped key hole at the end by the bar and the other end shows the internal structure as having a vertical, diving slat down the centre, suggesting that the bolt had two spring mechanisms. There is a small slot into the wall of the barrel next to the base of the slat. There is some simple decoration in the form of transverse double incised lines on the front of the cylindrical case forming a border, with zigzag double lines inside. There are punched dots in the angle of each zigzag. The size of this padlock suggests that it was probably intended for use on a casket or chest. The other part of the padlock which would be locked in place is missing, as are the sprung parts.
Length 34.96mm, width 20.85mm, thickness 9.81mm weight 8.22 Ref: Egan 'The Medieval Household' (pp. 91-99, nos. 242-245) For a further example please refer to DENO-41B6B5. |
