Description: | A copper alloy probable stirrup strap mount dating from the eleventh or possibly, twelfth century. The mount is sub-rectangular and openwork. The top edge is trilobed and contains three circular holes. There is a projecting animal head in the centre and the bottom and attachment plate of the mount are missing. The breaks are very worn and patinated. This mount fits into Williams Class B. The metal is brown and green and most of the glossy patina is missing. A very similar but complete example on the database is SWYOR-2A3162.
