Title
Padlock
Description
English: The incomplete copper-alloy case of a barb and spring (barrel) padlock. Measuring 43.3mm in length and 8.8mm in thickness. The hollow case has a hexagonal cross-section and both sides of the case are decorated with three parallel longitudinal grooves below a longitudinal wavy line. The remains of the integral bolt consists of a vertical rectangular part, which have held the tip of the now missing hasp in place. The case also has projections from either end of its underside.

Similar barrel padlocks have been discovered at Winchester and dated to the medieval period, c15th century (Biddle 1990, 1010-1012, fig 313, no 3666, 3667).
