Description: | A very abraded fragment from a purse bar of Post-Medieval date. Only a short length of the bar survives intact, the remainder now missing due to old breaks. It is U-shaped in section and slightly curved in profile although suffering from extensive post-depositional damage and wear. The original exterior surface are mostly missing due to wear and corrosion resulting in any original decorative elements being obscured. It measures 49.78mm in length, 6.84m, in width, 4.03mm in thickness and 5.84g in weight. This is an incomplete purse bar frame of LMMC Type A, similar in form to parallels noted in Norwich (Margeson, 1993: no. 290) and Suffolk (SF-716E31 and SF-1D1A71). It is of probable 16th to 17th century AD date. | Publisher: | http://finds.org.uk | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Identifier: | http://finds.org.uk/database/artefacts/r... | Go to resource |
