Description: | A Medieval copper alloy bar mount. In plan the mount consists of a central convex sub-oval section flanked at either end by a smaller sub-circular moulded knop. The face of the central section has four transverse grooves across its mid section. Each end knop is pierced in the centre with a rivet hole, both of which still have remnants of the copper alloy rivet in-situ which protrude for approximately 0.5mm from the reverse side. The reverse of the central oval section is concave. Similar bar mounts are shown in Egan, Dress Accessories 1150-1450 (2004) p214, No.1160/1161 and are dated through ceramic association to the period c AD 1350-1400. The mount weighs 2.26g and is 20mm long and 9mm wide.
