Description: | A cast metal strap-end. Only the main body is present; the spilt end has broken off. The body is decorated on the obverse with a Trewhiddle style design which covers the whole surface; this design is slightly three-dimensional, and terminates in a zoomorphic head with comma-type ears. The artefact is made from a 'silvery type metal'- maybe a high-tin bronze. This artefact dates to c.875.
