Description: | A Medieval copper-alloy strap-end.The object comprises two tongue-shaped plates, with a folded connecting strip at the bottom point. An in situ copper-alloy rivet, located centrally, a short distance from the top, further links the two plates together and would also have served to connect the now-missing strap.Length: 20.1mm; width: 9.8mm; thickness: 2.8mm; weight: 1g.Parallels for this form of strap-end were found in excavations in London, the vast majority in levels dating from the 14th to mid 15th centuries (Egan and Pritchard 1991: 127 - 129, cf. nos. 585 and 587).
