Description: | An incomplete copper-alloy hooked mount of post-Medieval date.The main portion of the mount consists of a pointed-oval plate with convex upper surface and a surmounting knop. At the base is a slightly wider collar, below this is a remnant of the backward-facing hook. The mount would have been attached by two rivets, the upper of which has adhering iron corrosion.The surfaces of the mount are heavily corroded. It measures 36.1mm long, 12.2mm wide and 1.7mm thick. The weight is 2.87g.A parallel for this mount is illustrated by Read (2001: 42/fig. 25, no. 363), who suggests a 17th century date.
