Description: | A slightly corroded cast copper-alloy medieval bar mount, sub-hemispherical in form. The central lobe is decorated with five transverse grooves. The two smaller side lobes are recessed on the lower surface; their rivets are missing. The recessed lower surface of the main lobe is filled with concretions. The object is similar to artefacts illustrated in Read (2001, 23; fig. 12) and Egan and Pritchard (1991, 214; fig. 134) which are dated to the second half of the fourteenth century.
