Description: | Cast copper alloy stirrup mount of Williams’ Class A, Type 1, broadly pentagonal in shape. There are three knops on each side of the mount. The apex loop is missing from the top of the mount above the uppermost two of the knops. The upper surface is smooth and decorated with an abstract asymmetric incised linear design of a single knotted beast with traces of silver wire inlaid in the design. The remains of a single rivet hole is evident in the centre of the mount between the two uppermost knops. Two further rivet holes are located at the bottom of the mount, one on each side, both retaining the remains of the original iron rivets. The reverse is flat and the mount has a short right-angled flange across the width of the base. | Subjects: | Strap Mount | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
