Description: | a copper alloy medieval strap end. It is a composite strap end with sheet spacer missing. It is rectangular, and is 30.35mm in length. One terminal is 13.84mm wide, and is rounded with a slight point at the centre, where one rivet is still in situ, for attaching the spacer. The strap end flares gently toward the opposite terminal, 15.34mm wide, and also has one central rivet, which would have attached to a strap. The strap end weighs 2.52g. A similar example from medieval London dates to the second half of the fourteenth century.
