Description: | An incomplete copper alloy probable strap end of probable Early Medieval dating (c. AD 600 to AD 1200).The probable strap end has been made from a piece of sheet copper alloy metal. It is sub rectangular in shape. The lower end has the outer corners folded into the centre. Possible zoomorphic decoration is present on the front of the strap end.The strap end measures 34.1 mm in length, 12.0 mm wide and 1.3 mm thick. It weighs 2.0 g.The possible strap end is a dark green colour, with an uneven surface patina. Abrasion, caused by movement, whilst within the plough soil, has resulted in a loss of some of the original surface detail.
