Description: | An incomplete copper alloy strap end of late Early-Medieval date. The object consists of a sub-rectangular sheet of metal with two circular perforations, one of which is broken, to the upper edge. A single, circular sectioned rivet was found in association with the strap end.While this object is similar in form to some Post-Medieval strap ends its association with numerous artefacts of securely Early-Medieval date and the inclusion of similar objects in the Flixborough report supports an earlier date.The metal is a dark green in colour with a smooth patina.
