Description: | An early medieval stirrup mount, in cast copper alloy. The mount comprises a flat approximately trapezoidal plate. At the narrow end of the plate is a circular perforation which is filled with accretions. At the wider end, there are two further circular perforations. This end also has a flange extending at right angles to the plate on its underside. The rest of the underside is plain. The upper surface of the plate is decorated with an incised abstract design. A similar example [V221] is illustrated in N. Mills (2001) Saxon and Viking Artefacts.
