Description: | A fragment of an openwork mount. Decorated in the Urnes style. The decoration comproses a beast's head terminal with an open mouth and pellet eyes (no ears), a serpentine body and interlacing tendrils. There are several circular openwork apertures. The back is flat. The break crosses four openwork apertures. David Williams (pers.com) has commented that this is coarser in its execution than examples of similar mounts from East Anglia.Date: Early-MedievalDimensions: 37.79 mm x 20.90 mm x 6.17 mmWeight: 9.96 g
