Description: | An incomplete copper-alloy two-part harness pendant, originally consisting of an outer pendant frame and a solid inner pendant, now only the outer pendant frame survives and is slightly distorted. It is medieval and circa 1300-1500 century in date. The outer pendant frame is shaped like a four-petalled flower with a suspension loop set at right angles to the plane of the pendant, this loop is incomplete due to an old break. The suspension loop is at the terminal of a two parallel rectangular shafts, which project from the top of the middle of the central petal. Between each petal there is a tapering rectangular mouling and the centre of each petal has a smaller knop in its centre. The outer pendant measures 56.3mm in length and 40.8mm in width. Its back face is flate and front face rounded. This two-part pendant is similar to another example from Isleham, Cambridgeshire (see SF-9810).
