Description: | Late Saxon Fragment of stirrup-strap mount, broken and very corroded, upper part missing, slightly trapezoidal, decorated with at least two pairs of multi-foils springing from central stem, each with single ring-and dot, and one in base, all within border. Base with possible traces of a break where flange is missing, somewhat obscured by iron corrosion on the central area on front and back. A vertical oval area of solder can also be seen on the reverse up to the break. 40 x >30mm. The form if not the decoration is perhaps closest to Williams' (1997) Class B, Unclassified, although unlike any examples illustrated therein. 11th century.
