Description: | A complete copper alloy Post-Medieval sword belt mount, with three plates attached. The outer face of the mount is decorated with a moulded foliate and floriate design. It has three rivet holes; one at each end and one in the centre, all containing the residues of iron rivets and three integral loops extending from one edge. Suspended from each of these is a hooked plate decorated with foliate moulding. Each of these has two rivets holes, one at either end, most of which still contain the residues of iron rivets. A very similar mount, no.793 can be seen in Read (2008, p.220), which he suggests is c.16th century date.Length: 66.50mm, Width: 73.60mm, Thickness: 2.50mm
