Description: | Cast copper alloy lamp hanger fragment dating from the medieval period, that is c. 14th-15th century. It is sub-triangular in plan (but incomplete), and flat in profile. Only one of the three arms remains. It terminates in a small suspension loop on the underside. There is a semi-circular cut-out section between each of the arms. The fragment appears functional rather than decorative. There is no moulded or openwork decoration on the obverse or reverse. There is a central perforation which appears rectangular on the obverse and circular on the reverse. Some iron residue remains around the perforation: possible the remains of an additional fitting, hook or suspension loop which went thought the central perforation.
