Description: | A gilded cast copper-alloy sub-rectangular strip, with one broken end, of probable medieval date. The strip has two parallel grooves running along its length (creating three ribs); the break at one end has been shaped by the strip, with the central rib extending beyond the rest of the strip, and the grooves break slightly before the rest. At the opposite end, the grooves stop approximately 4mm before the terminal. Traces of gilding remains on the face of the strip. The reverse face is plain and rough, and the strip has bent. The gilding suggests a medieval date for the object.
