Description: | A Late Medieval copper-alloy bar mount.The mount has a central hemisphere, hollow on the underside, its convex upper surface decorated with a band of six parallel, transverse grooves, some of the ridges between incised to create a ropework effect. Above and below this central hemisphere is a sub-rectangular projection containing an in situ copper-alloy rivet.Dimensions: 20.9mm long, 10.5mm wide, 5.8mm high. Weight: 1.89g.Two similar mounts were found in excavations in London, both in mid 14th to late 14th/early 15th century contexts (Egan and Pritchard 1991: 213/fig. 134, nos. 1160 and 1161).
