Found this at a old tavern site 1750s not sure what it is maybe a drawyer pull it looks like the cylinder on a six shot revolver

I believe it's a backing plate/escutcheon/rosette for a pull or knob, like here: http://www.signaturehardware.com/ha...lls/solid-bronze-floral-drawer-drop-pull.html

Awesome thanks I don't suppose you know how to date it do you?

Nice find! It could be quite old though I think the style has been used for a while. There are others listed on the UK finds site Portable Antiquities Scheme.

I thought it looked like a Tudor Rose so that it what I searched for -

"This type of mount was common during the 16th to 18th centuries AD and a number have been recorded on this database."

Yeap, found loads of them. I date them to the 18th C. The ID's above are correct.

You have to be careful with the PAS, lots of inaccuracies.
I don't believe this style pre-dates the 17th C & its not a Tudor Rose (5 outer petals not 6) design;
Furniture Escutcheon - UK Finds Database -
Most I believe are 18th C.
