Description: | A worn Post Medieval cast copper alloy strap mount. In plan the mount is a piriform shape with a slightly convex front face. There are three tranverse lines cast across the front face to represent a debased acorn form. The reverse has two outward-facing integral prongs, one positioned at either end of the mount. Similar mounts are illustrated in Read, Metal Artefacts of Antiquity (2001) p37, Fig 22 and are dated by him to the 17th C.
