Description: | A cast copper-alloy strap end of Medieval date. It has a flat, shield shaped plate with semi-circular notches to either side and a rounded attachment end. The attachment end has a central circular rivet hole missing its rivet due to old breaks. At the terminal end is a separately cast copper-alloy bar that is rectangular in form, curved in section with hollow back face and held in place by two evenly spaced copper-alloy rivets with flattened heads and circular roves. It measures 19.31mm in width, 21.64mm in length, 2.47mm in thickness and 1.56g in weight. This strap end is similar to examples from London (Egan and Pritchard, 1991: nos. 732-738) and is of probable 14th century AD date. | Publisher: | http://finds.org.uk | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Identifier: | http://finds.org.uk/database/artefacts/r... | Go to resource |
