Description: | The mount has a right-angled flange, the flange is more narrow than the width of the base of the mount. Where the flange terminates there is a circular fixing hole at either end at the base of the mount. Only the lower portion of the mount remains, the break is slightly ragged, but not recent. The outer face of the mount is decorated with a high relief design. The design consists of a high relief 'X' above each rivet hole. The cross is formed of two band which form a lozenge shape at the junction. The arms of the 'X's intermingle and the design becomes less clear. The reverse of the mount is undecorated. The mount has a dark brown coloured patina. | Format: | text/html | License: | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/ | Publisher: | The Portable Antiquities Scheme | Rights holder: | The Portable Antiquities Scheme | Subjects: | archaeology | Temporal: | 1000
