Saxon & Medieval — Late Medieval; mid-late 14th century
Patten
Left foot patten made from one piece of wood with leather toe straps. The toe is pointed and the patten has three wedges, in the toe, tread and seat. The straps are made from two layers of leather stitched together, flesh surface to flesh surface. The straps are decorated with a stamped design of woven X's, with a background of vertical and horizontal lines. There is a binding strip along the strap edges, which was attached after the straps were stitched. The form and construction is similar to no. 127 in Grew & de Neergaard, 2006, 94-95.
