Description: | 'Amphora-shaped' strap-end, now incomplete. The slightly thickened terminal at the base survives, modelled in three dimensions with two transverse grooves running around it. The body of the strap-end is flat and decorated on one face with ring-and-dot motifs. Along the lower edge the ring-and-dot motifs follow the curved edge, which is presumably original. The upper edges are straighter giving a roughly lozengiform shape, and these broken edges are worn smooth and well patinated so that they look original. At the top is a horizontal groove. These strap-ends date to the very end of the Romano-British period.
