Description: | A copper-alloy complete hinged strap fitting, rectangular in shape measuring 27mm in length and 12mm in width. One smaller half is a folded copper-alloy sheet recessed to accomodate the other half with its central projecting folded loop wrapped a round a bar, which is running horizontally through the two folded loops of the other half. This smaller half has two copper-alloy rivets through itsw attachment end. The larger folded sheet has a shaped attachment end and no rivets. This strap fitting could possibly have functioned as a box hinge if created from leather straps. It is likely to be medieval in date. | 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: | 1200
