Description: | A cast copper alloy dress-hook. The object consists of a circular plate with latticework decoration; from this protrudes a narrow hook, which appears to have been originally bent right over but which now is nearly straight. On the other side of the plate is a rectangular loop, with in interior width of 9.4mm. The reverse is flat and undecorated. The decoration on the plate resembles a wheel with four spokes, between which are perforated floral designs. Around the outside of the wheel there is a knopped border. The surface is light greyish-green. This artefact is late medieval to early post-medieval in date.
