Description: | An incomplete cast copper alloy zoomorphic strap end dating to the Early Medieval period. The central panel of the object is plain and broken along a rough horizontal axis. This possibly continued into an oval, decorated panel. The terminal is circular in section and is moulded to form an abstract animal's head backed by two curved incisions representing ears. The reverse is undecorated. The object can be classified as G. Thomas's Class A, Type 2. Similar examples can be found in Meols, (2007), p73, and on this database at LVPL-D45C11.
