Description: | Incomplete medieval copper alloy mount with one rivet hole, two arch-shaped openwork apertures and part of a third. Two straight edges remain, running below and to one side of the arches. Part of a third edge, above them, is oblique and below it is part of another aperture. Although the form of the arches, in particular of the "capitals", is close to those found on some 4th-century buckle plates (e.g. Hawkes and Dunning 1961, fig. 17g), it also occurs on Romanesque buckles such as an example from Licolnshire (NLM-53B266). More than 23 x more than 18.5mm. Thickness 1.5 - 2.5mm. 12th century.
