Description: | An incomplete copper-alloy mount, possibly a strap or belt mount, measuring 68mm in length and 20mm in width at its widest point. It is flat and tapers towards its complete terminal end, which has a rectangular central shaft with a rounded end projecting from it, and flares towards its missing terminal. The front face is decorated with a border groove and within this there are two opposing curvilinear grooves at the incomplete end, with traces of other curving grooves within these. The back face has a damaged rectangular projection which projects from the complete terminal end at right angles, this could have been pierced or puched through a leather strap for attachment purposes. This probable mount is most likely to be post medieval in date.
