Description: | A copper alloy strap loop probably dating to the later medieval period. It comprises a quatrefoil plate with angular projections. The upper surface of the quatrefoil plate is decorated with a peacock motif in blue, red and possibly white enamel. On the underside the plate there extends a rectangular loop. A flat circular riveted attachment plate extends from the base of the loop. The plate has a length and width of 23mm. The height of the strap loop is 21mm. The strap loop bears some similarity to a possible harness fitting from London illustrated in Clark, 1995, The Medieval Horse and its Equipment, p 70. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Walton, Phillippa - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
