Description: | A small cast copper-alloy mount of post-medieval date. The mount is asymmetrical, with a flared terminal at one end and a tapering terminal at the other, with an asymmetrical incurving waist in between; the upper surface is lsightly moulded. On the flat lower surface is a pair of pointed lugs, both pointing inwards and avoiding and passing each other. The lugs and the red-brown metal (with overlying green corrosion product) is suggestive of a 17th-century date. A similar mount can be found illustrated in Read (2001, 35; ref. 298).
