Description: | Copper alloy stirrup strap mount of Williams class A type 5. It has a pentagonal frame with a tapering, elongate point uppermost. There are two 'tendril' round ended projections running along the sides of the point. This joins to form a bar which would have terminated in the apex loop which is missing. The bar is D-sectioned. There was probably line decoration inside the frame but this has been obscured by corrosion. The back is undecorated. There is the stub of the iron spike at the base, in the middle above the flange.
