Description: | A copper alloy swivel strap fitting dating to the medieval period.The object consists of a rectangular frame which is 22.45 mm wide and 15.24 mm in length. The frame is 5.20 mm thick and is D-shaped in profile. There is a small projection which is 5.83 mm long and has a circular section. There is a small amount of damage on one of the corners of the frame and the patina is a consistent green colour. It is likely that this object would have been attached from the short projection to create and ball and in socket swivel and it has been suggested that objects of this type would have been used as part of a leash.
