  • Adult size wooden patten with a leather hinge; possibly for a left foot. The hinge is formed by a double layer of leather and secured by two rows of four nails. The toe straps are complete but are squashed over the toe. They are secured by a single nail either side of the toe and two nails either side of the tread, above the hinge. Binding strips survive between the toe straps and by the heel strap and there is a single nail near the waist which may have helped secure the binding in this area.. The heel strap is secured by two nails on either side. The base of the wooden sole is worn and has a small recess under the waist.
