Description: | An incomplete copper alloy strap fitting of Post-Medieval date. The strap fitting is sub-triangular in plan with an openwork design which consists of a small, circular aperture with a subtriangular aperture below and it terminates into a trilobed knop. The other end has a small, rectangular projection which would have extended into a recurving hook but this no longer survives. The reverse is flat and undecorated but has two circular projections which run centrally on the longitudinal axis of the strap fitting which would have been used for attachment.The metal has a dark grey-green patina. The object is 35.57mm in length, 14.69mm wide, 1.62mm thick and weighs 3.56g.Similar examples are found in Reads, p.232, no.828.
