Description: | An incomplete cast copper alloy strap end or similar strap fitting. The object is formed from three plates. The middle plate acts as a spacer plate. The top and bottom plates are much thinner and decorated. The main part of the strap end is rectangular and the front plate is decorated with two concentric incised rings, with a central hole and further holes around it. The strap end has a decorative terminal, which is trefoil shaped, two of the lobes are pierced and there are incised lines along the base of it.
The metal is a mid brownish-green colour and it is pitted. This strap end is likely to be late medieval in date. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Andrews-Wilson, Liz - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
