Description: | A cast copper-alloy medieval strap-slide with a central integral external rivet (c. 3.2mm in length). The frame is trapezoidal in shape with an expanded outer edge (Th.: 3.2mm). The artefact is flat on both upper and lower faces and is seemingly plain. A similar example can be found illustrated in Egan and Pritchard (1991, 232; ref. 1239). Many such trapezoidal examples have been found in 14th-century contexts. This piece is dark grey in colour with traces of off-white corrosion product.
