Description: | A Medieval copper alloy mount (AD1066-1500). The mount has a circular plate, the centre of which is domed (concave reverse). Four ??arms?? project equidistantly from the circular plate. Only three are present, one is missing. The central plate is decorated with two incised lines at the junctions between the arms. A separate rivet passes through the terminal of each of the arms. Attached to one of the rivets are two square fragments of copper alloy sheet. The copper alloy has a dark green patina. The broken edge of the fourth arm has the same patina as the rest of the surface suggesting the damage occurred in antiquity.
