Description: | Cast copper alloy strap end dating from the Medieval period. The object is a shield-shaped plate strap end. At the top of the object are two rectangular tabbed projections which would have had a bar-mount attached. Below are two sub-rectangular sectioned rivets. One rivet is larger than the other. At the base of the object is a circular perforation which probably would have held another rivet. The object has a mid-green patina. One side of the object has been over cleaned. The object can be dated to the 14th century.Similar examples can be found on p.157, Egan and Pritchard, (1991).
