Description: | Incomplete and distorted Middle Saxon strap-end of Thomas's class J, formed from one piece of folded metal and secured by one rivet through a terminal at the attachment edge, all of which is missing. Only one face, probably the front, survives. The sides run parallel from the fold before narrowing to a bar with transverse mouldings. This is bent and broken below the terminal. Length >26mm. Cf. Harling HER 6033 (EAA 74, fig.41 no.74), and other examples from North Creake (HER 11707), Shropham (HER 17722) and Barton Bendish (HER 17212). 8th or 9th century.
