Description: | A cast copper alloy tongue-shaped strap-end. The artefact is complete. There is a central longitudinal rib; the spaces either side are filled with single rows of ring-and-dot motifs. The reverse is blank. The upper end is split (when seen side-on) to take the end of the strap; this end is perforated by two holes for rivets. Kevin Leahy states that such artefacts are found around the Irish Sea and date to the tenth century.
