Description: | A zoomorphic terminal from the side of a stirrup of 11th century date. The animal head has a prominent forehead, eyes of pointed oval form, and rounded ears which extend behind the head. Tendrils ending in lobes curl back from each side of the nose. Behind the head is a plain neck and a rounded knop with facets. The back is hollow where it was placed onto the iron stirrup side. Within the hollow are punched marks to take the lead solder.
