Description: | A copper-alloy strap end of Medieval date. It is formed from a flat sheet of copper-alloy that has been folded lengthways to produce a flat tongue-shaped plate with spli attachment end. The attachment end has been slightly bent due to post-depositional damage and has concave edges with two small circular rivet holes that contain the corroded remains of iron rivets. The entire object measures 41.48mm in length, 9.56mm in width, 1.80mm in thickness and 3.72g in weight. This is a Medieval strap end similar to examples from London (Egan and Pritchard, 1991: no. 604), probably dating to the 14th century AD or slightly later. | Publisher: | http://finds.org.uk | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Identifier: | http://finds.org.uk/database/artefacts/r... | Go to resource |
