Description: | A copper alloy late saxon stirrup strap mount. Only a fragment survives. The base remains, which is angled inwards at about 70??. There are two holes - one at either side ?? near the base of the mount, one of which contains an iron rivet. There are two smaller holes between the rivet holes, slightly higher, probably part of an open work design. The mount tapers slightly towards the top before the break, suggesting a possible sub triangular shape. This stirrup mount dates to the 11th century AD. It measures 28.1mm x 18mm x 7mm, weighing 9.18g. | Subjects: | strap mount | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Cooper, Amy - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
