Description: | Cast copper alloy mount of post Medieval date. The mount would have formed part of the fittings of a sword belt. The mount is flat and sub-triangular in plan with rounded corners and two iron rivets along the midline. An incomplete folded hook terminal, which would have been used as a suspension loop, projects from the apex of the triangular plate.Sword belt fittings of this type are typically dated to the 17th Century, c. 1600-1700.See ESS-45BF48 for a similar find.
