Description: | Cast copper alloy bar mount dating to the Medieval period. The object comprises a bar with integral rivets on the reverse, and integral terminal pointed lobes on either end. Decoration on the main body of the bar mount consists of worn ribs, arranged vertically as the mount is held with the rivets to right and left. The reverse is undecorated and concave between the rivets. A mount of comparable size with integral rivets is known from excavations in London; it was suggested that this example was rather for a casket than for a strap.
