Description: | A copper-alloy hooked mount of probable Medieval date. The nature of this piece suggests it may be a harness strap fitting.The mount consists of a rectangular plate with the remnant of a wide, forward-facing hook projecting from the base. Within the plate, situated one above the other, are two domed-head copper-alloy rivets. These rivets have had their points flattened and the upper one also retains a sub-circular washer. The plate's upper surface bears traces of gilding. The object is bent and corroded. It measures 36.5mm long, 14.8mm wide and 7.8mm thick. It weighs 4.85g.
