Description: | A copper-alloy strap mount likely to be medieval in date. The mount is rectangular in shape, 41mm in length and 9mm in width, one end terminates in what is now an incomplete circular suspension loop and the other in an incomplete hook which curves backwards. The front face is slightly convex and has a transverse groove beneath the suspension loop, the back face is flat. There is an iron rivet through the lower half of the mount. No parallel could be found for this mount, it may possible have been a horse harness fitting of some kind. | 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: | 1066
