5 The invention relates to a lower limb prosthesis. The prosthesis comprises a tapered structural column (1) made from a thermoplastic material. The column has an adjustable joint (2,3) at both ends for attachment to a stump socket (4) and to a foot member (8). The adjustable joints (2,3) may be formed of opposing wedge-shaped discs (5,9) which can be locked together at the correct alignment.
