Description: | A copper-alloy strap end of Medieval date. It is sub-triangular in form, folded at the terminal end to form an upper and lower plate of equal size. The terminal end has a wide oval sectioned gap, but lacks either pin slot or frame constrictions that might indicate usage as a plate for a buckle or folding strap clasp. At the attachment end is a single central cylindrical rivet with flattened round heads. This strap end measures 13.92mm in length, 10.47mm in width, 3.65mm in thickness and weighs 0.94g. This is a copper-alloy strap end similar to examples from London (Egan and Pritchard, 1991: no. 744) and is of probable 14th century AD date. | Publisher: | http://finds.org.uk | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Identifier: | http://finds.org.uk/database/artefacts/r... | Go to resource |
