Saxon & Medieval — Late Medieval; 15th century
Patten
Part of a multi layered leather patten for an adult right foot. There are three layers in the forepart. The outer sole has grit in it from wear and is very worn on one side of the heel. The patten is very narrow with a very pointed toe. There are two stitch holes in the centre of the tread and in the middle of the waist. These are probably for holding the layers of leather together during the stitching of the patten. There are possible traces of an iron nail to one side of the waist.
