Description: | Cast copper alloy strap end dating from the medieval period, that is c. AD1200-1500.This is a angled-end composite strap end with a spacer probably occupying the whole width. The front and back plate are rectangular in shape and taper to a point. The obverse is decorated with a cross of two lines of rocker decoration. The reverse is undecorated. At the attachment end is a separate central circular copper-alloy rivet with a flattened round head connecting both plates.There is a similar example from London (Egan and Pritchard, 1991, p.145 no. 685).
