Description: | Post medieval cast copper alloy strap hanger. The hanger has a closed oval loop to go on a strap with a large C shaped hook coming from the bottom and running up parallel to it. The hanger is very plain and may have been used on a belt or harness to hold an object on a ring such as a purse, sword or keys. More elaborate examples from sword belts have been recorded e.g. WILT-E9A637 but these all have longer and more elaborate hooks, this is plainer and possibly later.It is 37.6mm long, 27.7mm wide, 11.5mm thick and weighs 32.02 grams.
