Description: | A copper-alloy probable front plate from a hooked tag of three piece construction, measuring 17mm by 14.6mm in size. This front plate has three rounded bosses, one in each trefoil. In the centre there is a rivet with four grooves radiating out from this central point inbetween each of the three bosses. The back face is hollow and another rivet can be seen projecting from the centre of one of the bosses. There are traces of a cream coloured solder on the back face which implies that this plate was soldered onto a back plate, as is common with three piece hooked tags dating from the early post medieval period.
