Description: | A copper-alloy incomplete medieval circa 14th century composite strap end. This strap end has a sheet spaced occupying its whole width and the back outer plate is now missing. It is rectangular in shape and measures 42.7mm in length and 12.3mm in width.
There is a copper-alloy rivet through the centre of the attachment edge and through the centre of the terminal end. The front outer plate is shaped, its tapers towards the terminal end and has three opposing U-shaped notches before the terminal, which is waisted and then oval shaped before ending in a trefoil. The front face is also decorated with incised lines of tiny zigzags which are arranged to form a central lozenge shape. The spacer is also shaped, although more roughly than the front plate. | 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
