Description: | Copper alloy strap end of Medieval date, probably from a composite strap end. The object is generally rectangular in shape with a pointed terminal end and a small rectangular knop protruding from the point. There are two corresponding pairs of rivet holes in each sheet. One is located in the centre at the attachment and the other in the centre at the terminal end. Both retain the remains of the copper alloy rivets. One of the long sides of both sheets is damaged so that it is irregular. There is no decoration evident on either surface. Patchy mid-green patina. It is 35.09mm long, 11.22mm wide, 2.95mm thick and weighs 4.45g. Parallels are known from London (Egan & Pritchard 1991, p. 140-143, fig. 93, no.s 653-660). | 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: | 1300
