Description: | Cast copper alloy part of a Medieval stirrup
The fragment is sub-rectangular with an expanded front plate. The reverse being much narrower. It has been cast in one piece and there would have been two extensions from the outer edges of the base to form the stirrup. The front is decorated with 2 raised lines around the edges which overlap at the corners to form square designs.
A very similar example can be seen in Read, p. 90-1, fig.547 (1998). See HAMP-46A675 for another example of a fragment of this style of stirrup | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | McIntosh, Frances | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
