Description: | One copper alloy plate from a strap end. The plate is sub-rectangular, tapering towards the slightly rounded closed end where there is a small projecting knop. There is one rivet hole in each end. The plate is 26.4mm long, 14.3mm wide and 0.9mm thick. Similar examples can be seen on pages 142 and 147 of Egan and Pritchard's Dress Accessories (1991). These parallels suggest a likely date of 1250 to 1500. The plate is in good condition. It is dark, almost black on one side and has a light green patina on the other.
