Description: | A fragment of a worn and corroded cast copper-alloy possible mount of possible Medieval date. The fragment is sub-oval in form and has very worn and abraded irregular edges; is slightly convex in profile, with the underside exhibiting slight concavity. On the upper surface of this fragment are a series of cross-hatched incised lines, and the remains of one complete and two partially formed circular apertures in a triangular formation. These two partial apertures are not visible on the underside, which may suggest that this fragment was a trial or error piece that was possibly not finished. The underside is corroded and uneven, and does not appear to show a finished surface. This artefact has a light-mid green patina overall, which suggests a possible Medieval date to the recorder.
