Description: | A complete component, apparently from an early medieval chatelaine. The object comprise two rows of three and four circular apertures separated by a group of parallel ridges. Two very similar examples are illustrated in West (West, S. 1998 A Corpus of Anglo-Saxon Material From Suffolk East Anglian Archaeology Vol. 84), Figure 22 Nos. 19 and 20, which are dated possibly to the late Early Medieval or early Medieval period. Another example has been recorded on the Portable Antiquities Scheme database, BH-0FA375 and here it has been described as a chatelaine from which keys may have been suspended. See also WAW-411295.
