Description: | A cast copper alloy shield-shaped mount, in fair condition. The edges are damaged in places, and the tips of the corners are broken. The surface is fairly smooth, with a muddy/ light green colour. No enamel or gilding survives, but the design is very clear: a saltire, engrailed, with the ends of the arms terminating just short of the edge. There are three small holes in the shield, on in each top corner and one at the base. The artefact was well-made; it dates to the 13th or 14th century.
