Description: | A cast copper alloy single looped pentagon-shaped pendent loop, of the type that is used on a strap with a bar-mount. On the three main corners large knops survive. The hinge bar, which would have hinged with the bar-mount, is off-set. The metal is a mid greyish-green colour.
Similar pendent loops are on the PAS database (e.g. NMS-E07307 and HAMP-2CBF30, still with bar-mounts; and NMS-F77D33 and WAW-045E61, now missing their bar-mounts). An excavated parallel comes from a context of c.1350 to c.1400 at Billingsgate in London (Egan and Pritchard 1991, fig.138, no.1189) and they are generally thought of as belonging to the 14th 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: | 1300
