Description: | Early medieval copper alloy stirrup mount, 39mm long, 28mm wide and 2.5mm thick. The object is in fair condition with a reddish patina and weighs 12.27grams. It is very worn but appers to be a Williams class A type 1 stirrup mount. It is sub rectangular with a flat base and sides which taper out slightly and then taper in near the top. It has protrusions at each side which are symmetrical and form the outline of a beasts head. The upper side is missing a loop and the reverse is plain with a small protruding lip at the base 5mm wide. Above this it has two circular holes, 3mm in diameter, placed next to each other a few millimetres apart. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Scott, Wendy - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
