Description: | Very large medieval copper alloy bar-mount with two rivet holes in the terminal lobes and a large central pierced lobe. Between the lobes the sides are bevelled and there is a median arris. On the partly hollow reverse the rivet holes are countersunk, and there are file marks and a large patch of solder or tinning. Similar to an example from Leicestershire (LEIC-D14692) and one excavated in Hull (Goodall, A.R. in Armstrong and Ayers 1987, 204-5, fig. 117 no. 189). Other examples have been recorded in Norfolk, at Banham (HER 32136), East Walton (HER 29273) and Narborough (HER 15148, NMS-C7D354). They are massive versions of a standard type of bar-mount (Egan and Pritchard 1991, fig. 134, nos. 1154 and 1157-8).Length 58.8mm. Width 16mm. Thickness 4mm. Late 13th - 14th century.
