Title: BOOK FITTING [Go to resource]
Description: An incomplete copper alloy post-medieval book fitting. The book fitting consists of a roughly rectangular plate with hook at one end; there are the remains of two rivet holes arranged centrally down the plate, one of which is located at the break at the opposite end to the hook. The fitting is decorated on the upper surface only, the design comprising zig-zags, linear scores and, at the break, concentric circles. This type of book fitting dates from c. AD 1550-1650.
