Description: | Copper-alloy bar-mount. In the centre is a large circular lobe, 14 mm across, with a large sub-circular perforation measuring 6 x 7 mm. To either side is a long bar, D-shaped in section and 5 mm wide. These run out to slightly expanded rounded terminals, each with a separate copper-alloy rivet with a little separate circular copper-alloy rove. At 50.5 mm long it is relatively large. These were used transversely to stiffen a belt; in London they are found in contexts of the late 13th to mid 14th century (Egan and Pritchard 1991: 213-214, fig. 134, nos. 1154, 1157 and 1158).
