Description: | Copper-alloy stirrup terminal similar to Williams 1997 (FRG Datasheet 24) fig 5, the trilobate foot-like form. At the top is an incomplete tube which runs with open reverse down the back of the terminal; it flares to a closed end on the reverse at the lower end. Across the front, close to the break, is a transverse moulding. The tube would have fitted around the iron stirrup and the inside of the tube has a lot of decayed solder for attachment to the stirrup. The lower end of the terminal flares out to end in three projecting rounded 'toes' with slight incurves between them; the underside of the 'foot' is flat. Late Anglo-Saxon, 11th century.
