Description: | Scrap of Late Saxon cast unidentified object, possibly a mount, sub-triangular, no certain original edge survives. Worn, elaborate, possibly openwork, decoration of multiple strands and possible knots in relief on face with single perforation and remains of undecorated possible border at broad end. >12 x >29mm. The decoration is reminiscent of that found on a ninth-century mount, showing a horseman and valkyrie, from Bylaugh, illustrated in Margeson (1997) fig. 8.
