Description: | A small cast copper-alloy probable box mount. Consisting of a central rectangular bar, with one complete circular terminal with a circular hole through its centre and one incomplete slightly smaller circular terminal also with a central hole. It is 18.50mm in length and 4.44mm in width across the bar and 6.86mm in width across the complete terminal. The front face is rounded and back face flat, traces of gilding remain on the front face.This clasp could have been attached to the box. This example is similar to one from Coddenham, Suffolk (see SF-74FF25) and another from Easton, (SF-090f45) although these examples have one circular pierced terminal and one hooked terminal. They are both middle Anglo-Saxon or later in date.
