Description: | Cast copper alloy late Anglo-Saxon trefoil harness mount with hollow backed central conical boss. One of the three trifoliate projections is missing. Each of the projections is pierced. A complete example has been found at Scunthorpe, N. Lincs (NLM783). A quatrefoil version has been found at West Dereham, Norfolk (443CF5). Four examples of this type of mount feature in Read's 2001 book (nos. 115-118) but have been identified as 14th century book mounts. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Herepath, Nick - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
