Description: | A broken copper-alloy sheet plate from a medieval strap-fitting, probably a buckle plate. The fragmentary plate is rectangular and features a pair of rivet holes at the attachment end; it has broken at a further hole at the centre of the sheet. The attachment end has been bent, then down at its terminal. The corners are slightly abraded and rounded at the attachment end; one of the perforations has a crack between it and the side. Corrosion has robbed us of any decoration, if indeed it existed; the artefact is now a variable mid-green colour with patches of lighter corrosion product.
