Description: | An incomplete late Saxon copper alloy strap-end of Thomas type A. Approximately half of the object survives, being that located at the terminal rather than attachment end. The body was tongue shaped and the surviving part depicts an incised panel containing two diagonal lines in the form of a ladder; both begin in the corner and meet in the middle. An unclear motif is located in each angle. The terminal is in the form of a crudely incised animal head; only two crescents are visible. The break is worn and patinated the same as the body.
