Description: | A cast copper alloy Medieval fitting. The main part is roughly hexagonal with an uneven, swirling surface decoration. The reverse is flat. There is a circular hole through the centre of this part. The upper part is in the form of a rectangular loop, which has a linear surface indentation along each short side. At the opposite end, the object terminates in a pierced knop. The circular hole (now partly broken) runs in a horizontal direction. The object is probably the lower part of a two-piece strap end, attached to a hinged plate. It appears roughly made.
