Description: | An incomplete copper-alloy strap fitting, rectangular in shape measuring 55mm in length and 9mm in width. One terminal is complete and ends with a central pointed projection, 7mm in length and 3.5mm in width. The front face is decorated with three raised rectangular panels, each with traces of cross-hatches which appear to have been soldered on. At the incomplete end of this decorated part there is a flat protrusion which is incomplete, due to an old break, the beginning of a perforation can be seen on its edge. Two parallel rivets remain in place, one near to end of the complete terminal, before the protrusion, and the other through the last rectangular panel at the incomplete end. The back face is undecorated and slightly concave. This strap fitting is likely to be Medieval in date although no exact parallel could be found. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Minter, Faye - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
