Description: | A worn cast copper-alloy medieval strap-slide with a pair of short pointed internal projections (c. 3.1mm in length). It is sub-trapezoidal in shape with rounded corners, presumably bent out of its original form. The outer edge features a possible central moulding; the artefact is otherwise flat on both faces. The projections lie closer to the inner edge. Similar examples can be found illustrated in Egan and Pritchard (1991, 234; fig. 149). Many of these trapezoidal examples have been found in 13th-century contexts.
