Description: | A small cast copper-alloy mount (strap-fitting) of post-medieval date, with traces of gilt. The mount is asymmetrical, with an expanded terminal tapering to a rounded one at the other. On the lower surface is a pair of pointed lugs, one both bent out of their original alignment. The lower surface is slightly concave and one of the lugs emerges from a circular platform. The lugs and the red-brown metal (with overlying green and off-white corrosion product) is suggestive of a 17th-century date.
