Description: | Cast copper alloy strap fitting, possible harness suspension loop or buckle plate length 63mm, width 12mm, thickness 5mm, weight 11.02g. This is a bar which would have had a loop at the terminal, this is now missing. The bar is triangular in cross section with a globular terminal that has a rivet hole in the centre and a rectangular knop on the tip. There is a second rivet hole at the other end of the bar, both are encrusted in iron corrosion. The other terminal begins to expand into a loop but is truncated at its base, so it is impossible to tell whether it was originally a loop to suspend a harness mount or a buckle frame. This artefact dates to the 14th century.
