Description: | Copper alloyHarness pendant hanger (identified by finder). A heavy cast pendant hanger with paired loops below a horizontal bar with two rivets secured by circular roves of diameter 9.6mm; the gap between bar and roves suggests the hanger was fastened to a strap of 2.2mm thickness. Traces of gilding remain on the bar and suspension loops. The finder has bagged this object with a harness pendant hanger found at a different location in the same field, though the connection between the objects is uncertain - this hanger is large, and the pendant small. Suggested date: Medieval, 1250-1350.Length/Height: 23.62mm, Width: 23.85mm, Thickness (at union of bar and strap): 7.26mm, Weight: 9.14gms.
