Description: | An incomplete cast copper alloy Anglo-Scandinavian strap end. The strap end is an elongated tongue-shape, formed from a single plate, which splits at the attachment end. The attachment terminal has broken off, resulting in the loss of rivet holes and rivets. The front surface has been decorated with an incised geometric design, inside a rectangular border - now heavily worn. The terminal of the strap end is tongue-shaped. The strap end is almost complete. The metal is a dark reddish-brown colour. The strap end fits Thomas' classification Type E and dates from 900 - 1100.
