Title
Post Medieval iron hammer
Description
English: A complete Post Medieval cast iron hammer head probably dating to the 17th century. This is a claw hammer head with a rectangular socket for the handle and a conical head at one end and angled split end at the other. The conical head has a faceted neck. The iron is in reasonable condition with no rust developing on the surface. There are no visible maker's marks. There is some wear or damage on the outer corners of the split end.

A similar example is recorded on the database as LON- 94C927, which Tony Pilson identified as dating to the 17th century.

Dimensions: length: 116.71mm; width: 29.53mm; thickness: 17.29mm; diameter: 27.51mm.

This hammer was found closely associated with LON-068890.
