Description: | A cast copper-alloy strap fitting, probably for harness, dating to the Post-Medieval period, c. 1500-1700.The fitting is incomplete, consisting of a pyrimidal body, convex in section, cast integral with a triangular terminal with a sub-rectangular hole in its centre. The opposite end of the fitting probably had a similar terminal, now missing. The underside retains three hooked shanks, one at the point of the terminal and one at each end of the body. The shanks appear to be cast integral and are rectangular in section.
