Description: | Modern (19th-20th century) cast copper alloy stirrup. The foot rest is an open work oval. The curved outer edges have a series of transverse grooves for grip, while the two inner bars are straight with no additional grip and these two bars show sighs of wear. The frame is sub-rectangular. The outer edge of the frame has incised decoration in the form of oak leaves and acorns. The rectangular suspension loop is boxed by by a sub-rectangular mount. The front has been decorated with a monogram with a crown above, which has been riveted onto the frame. The monogram is possibly an entwined AR, or possibly LL, with the latter L being reversed. There is an 'S' shaped iron fitting attached to the suspension loop. The stirrup is 170mm long and the foot plate is 120mm long, 70mm wide. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | McLean, Laura - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
