Description: | A worn cast copper-alloy belt or strap mount of Post-Medieval date. It has a triangular plate with triangular notch at the attachment end and integrally cast hook at the opposite end. At the centre of the plate are two circular rivet holes that contain the corroded remains of separately cast iron rivets. The hook at the base of the plate is rectangular in form, D-shaped in section and tapers to a rear-facing rounded tip. The back face of the plate is slightly concave and has suffered from post-depositional wear. It measures 34.59mm in length, 12.10mm in width, 2.45mm in thickness, and weighs 2.82g. This is a Post-Medieval strap or belt mount with near identical parallels noted from Norwich (Margeson, 1993: nos. 257-258). It is of 16th to 17th century AD date. | Publisher: | http://finds.org.uk | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Identifier: | http://finds.org.uk/database/artefacts/r... | Go to resource |
