Description: | A cast copper-alloy Winchester style strap end that belongs to Thomas's Class E, Type 1 (2004, 2). The tongue-shaped strap end has a spilt attachment end, which still retains one of the copper-alloy rivets. One corner of the attachment end has been broken off. The strap end is also quite worn with most of the original green surface flaking off to reveal a brown surface. The openwork decorations on both sides of the plate are typical Winchester style. Although no detail of the decoration survives, the plant-scroll formation is simplified to a symmetrical openwork pattern. The length is 47.8mm, the width is 19.7mm, the thickness is 4.2mm and the weight is 13.71g.
