Description: | Incomplete Late Saxon copper alloy stirrup-strap mount of Williams?? (1997) Class B Type 2, the upper part is missing, two fixing holes in angled flange, one iron filled. In the centre of the flange there is a short vertical moulded rib. Above the flange an animal head is atypical, lacking the normal mouse- or bat-like ears. Engraved lines run along all the spaces between the apertures. Both sides are taken up with a highly stylised beast, but only on the right-hand, more intact side is this very obvious. Height >32mm. Width >34mm. 11th century. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Bales, Ellen - Norfolk Museums and Archaeology Service | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
