Description: | Middle or Late Saxon copper alloy strap-end, Thomas' (2003) Class A. Split-end, convex sides, probably originally with an animal head terminal although now too worn and damaged to discern the features. A rectangular panel on the plate may depict a beast originally reserved on an inlaid field. The attachment edge is also damaged although it may be broken across a single rivet hole. Length 24mm. Width12.5mm. Circa 9th century.The strap-end is very small for the type, and unfortunately damaged and corroded, making the features difficult to discern.
