The part that contained the strap is square-ended, damaged and bent, with most of front part missing. Projecting from the foot of the plate is a very box-like diamond-set element.

Height of diamond-set ?box? 8mm. Cf. examples from Narborough/Narford (HER 32309) and Bunwell (HER 10007), cf. Fingerlin (1971), 111, Taf. 174-8. | 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
