Saxon & Medieval — Late Medieval; late 14th-15th century
Shoe, ankle boot
Adult, left foot shoe with one-piece sole and front latchet fastening. The toe is pointed. There are holes worn in the tread and heel of the sole and it appears to have been patched (now missing). The upper is in two main pieces - the vamp and one-piece quarters. One strap of the front latchet fastening is missing and the other , which is part of the vamp, has two fastening holes. The small side insert (now attached to this shoe) may come from a different shoe. The quarters curve up towards the back on the outer side. The other side is incomplete as the original insert is missing.
