Description: | An incomplete copper-alloy probable furniture fitting of Medieval date. The fitting is broadly D shaped in cross section, at the old break a circular perforation is visible, the fitting then expands slightly before tapering to the now incomplete tip. Adjacent to the old break along the perforation is a raised horizontal band. The fitting is decorated with two shallow incised grooves which form a V, two circular recess es are visible either side of the V before it tapers towards the tip. The fitting continues to narrow before expanding slightly, and decoration is too worn to discern, after the expansion the fitting tapers towards the old break. The fitting is probably a box binding of 14th-century date. The artefact has a mid brown patina.
