Description: | Cast copper alloy hooked fastener dating from the late Medieval to early Post-Medieval period. The fastener comprises a rectangular body with a sub-rectangular perforation removed from the end opposite the hook. The hook is almost equal in length to the body of the fastener, and curves up behind toward the reverse. The face of the fastener has seven circular holes for decoration; three along the perforation and two pairs below. The lower pair has been deeply drilled, leaving two small perforations. There are some traces of possibly white enamel in the other holes.
