Description: | A copper-alloy horse harness mount of probable 17th to 18th century AD date.
The upper surface of the mount is slightly convex and has suffered from post-depositional damage. The central portion is oval in plan and has a corroded iron rivet at the centre. At the top, the central section tapers into a trefoil with leaf or feather-like indentations in its surface. The bottom section of the mount consists of a roughly semi-circular projection, the edges of which are toothed.
The mount measures 51.3mm long by 22.7mm wide and up to 6.6mm thick; it weighs 10.77g. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Watters, Julian - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
