Based on this image, this type of spoon\/fork is possibly a Fiddle pattern - this refers to the shape of the handle - and is a type introduced in the 1780s and still in production today. The Fiddle pattern means that there are shoulders on the stem near the bowl, which is seen on this example. The lower end of the stem juts out around 90 degrees but this example may have been worn down in the marine environment. Dominant throughout the nineteenth century, Fiddle pattern is the most commonly found pattern from the 1800s. Originating in France, it first occurred in England from the 1760s without the shoulders on the stem near the bowl. The most common Fiddle pattern variants are Fiddle & Thread and Fiddle, Thread & Shell. The production of plain Fiddle pattern ceased around the time of World War One (https:\/\/www.antiquesilverspoons.co.uk\/spoon-info accessed January 2018).", "notes":"This item was found with one stoneware salt glazed jar\u200b \u200b(MAS-D100132), two clear glass fruit bottles, one ornate green glass wine bottle, one black glass bottle, one tall wine bottle brown glass hexagonal at base (MAS-D100133) and three ceramic bottles (MAS-D100156)\u200b.", "classification":"FOOD PREPARATION AND CONSUMPTION", "periodFrom":36, "periodTo":41, "treasure":1, "TID":"316\/17", "workflow":3, "institution":"MAS", "datefound1":"2017-10-18T00:00:00Z", "subClassification":"CUTLERY", "currentLocation":"With finder", "created":"2017-10-23T17:13:40Z", "updated":"2020-03-30T14:05:38Z", "secuid":"134", "quantity":1, "material":22, "subsequentAction":"28", "completeness":2, "preservation":1, "discovery":15, "recorderID":"PAS5989C577001EA7", "identifierID":"PAS5989C577001EA7", "createdBy":2, "creator":"MAS MAS", "updatedBy":"MAS", "materialTerm":"Silver", "primaryMaterialBM":11728, "completenessTerm":"Incomplete", "preservationTerm":"Fair", "periodFromName":"POST MEDIEVAL", "periodFromBM":"x41047", "periodToName":"MODERN", "broadperiodBM":"x41047", "discoveryMethod":"Diving", "subsequentActionTerm":"Submitted as wreck to the Receiver of Wreck", "filename":"156_IMG_3565Large.JPG", "thumbnail":361, "imagedir":"images\/MAS", "recorder":"LR", "timestamp":"2024-10-09T14:16:43.861Z" }, { "findIdentifier":"finds-132", "id":132, "old_findID":"MAS-D100132", "objecttype":"INK BOTTLE", "broadperiod":"NINETEENTH CENTURY", "description":"One stoneware ink bottle.\n\nInk bottles or inkwells were made of various materials including glass, various metals, various stones, various woods, horn, ceramics and stoneware, and even hard rubber.

For the hinge element of the object only one leaf can be observed from the photo, which measures approximately 64 mm by 127 mm. Given the leaves are likely to be identical in size, this would suggest the overall width is approximately 127 mm making a regular square when fully opened. The metal of the hinge is in generally good condition, with some blue\/green discolouration suggestive of a copper alloy such as brass. The hinge is of a common type known as a butt hinge, with five interlocking knuckles secured through the centre by a pin or pen. The visible leaf bears five holes for affixing the hinge, and it is likely the obscured side bears a similar number. The number of fixing holes suggests a heavy duty use for the hinge, such as a door, rather than use in lighter items such as furniture.\n\nThe wooden elements of the hinge are highly degraded and encrusted with barnacles, its function is therefore undiscernible. There does appear to be an element of beading or a baton in wood, immediately attached to the hinge leaf. Protruding from beneath the beading and running away from the hinge is a section of wood with apparently parallel edges, approximately 89 mm wide, that although heavily damaged may represent a narrow plank. This suggests that the moving element of the object, such as a door or hatch, was attached to the obscured leaf, with the other attached to the stationary element such as a door frame.\n\nButt hinges were manufactured from around 1850 and are one of the most common forms of hinge in use today.", "notes":"These items were found with two bowls (MAS-D100127), two bottles (MAS-D100129), one mug (MAS-D100130), and one copper lid (MAS-D100150).", "classification":"Fixing", "periodFrom":39, "periodTo":41, "treasure":1, "TID":"312\/17", "workflow":3, "institution":"MAS", "datefound1":"2017-09-30T00:00:00Z", "currentLocation":"With finder", "created":"2017-10-09T15:46:29Z", "updated":"2020-04-22T18:03:01Z", "secuid":"128", "width":204, "length":305, "quantity":1, "material":7, "secondaryMaterial":14, "subsequentAction":"28", "completeness":2, "discovery":15, "recorderID":"PAS5C5037EF001C03", "identifierID":"PAS5989C577001EA7", "createdBy":2, "creator":"MAS MAS", "updatedBy":"MAS", "materialTerm":"Copper alloy", "primaryMaterialBM":10627, "secondaryMaterialTerm":"Wood", "secondaryMaterialBM":11988, "completenessTerm":"Incomplete", "periodFromName":"NINETEENTH CENTURY", "periodToName":"MODERN", "discoveryMethod":"Diving", "subsequentActionTerm":"Submitted as wreck to the Receiver of Wreck", "filename":"128_allmaterial.JPG", "thumbnail":754, "imagedir":"images\/MAS", "recorder":"PT", "timestamp":"2024-10-09T14:16:42.43Z" }, { "findIdentifier":"finds-79", "id":79, "old_findID":"MAS-D100079", "objecttype":"CLAY PIPE (SMOKING)", "broadperiod":"NINETEENTH CENTURY", "description":"All three pipes here are complete and are of the short or 'cutty' form.

Copper rivets are the standard method of fastening the planks to each other in clinker constructed vessels, or in the planks to the ribs or frames (Traditional Maritime Skills website, accessed September 2017). Clinker is a method of constructing the hull of a boat by fixing wooden planks so that the planks overlap along their edges. The overlapping joint is called a land. If the plank is too short for the hull, it would be necessary to extend the plank by joining with another piece of wood.
