Description: | A worn cast copper-alloy medieval bar mount, sub-hemispherical in form. At each end there is a lobe perforated to take a rivet; neither of the rivets survive. The body of the mount is convex and is decorated with four transverse grooves. Examples of this style of bar mount can be seen illustrated in Read (2001, 23; fig. 12) and Egan and Pritchard (1991, 214; fig 134). These generally date to the second half of the fourteenth century. | 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: | 1350
