Description: | An incomplete strap fitting of Post-Medieval date. It is missing part of the suspension loop due to old breaks, now worn.The main body is convex and oval in shape with a central circular rivet hole towards the base. At the top there is a transverse ridge connecting to a circular attachment end, with a central circular rivet hole and a projecting circular knop. Still within the rivet hole is the corroded remains of a separately cast iron rivet. At the base is a double transverse ridge which connects to the remains of an integrally cast suspension loop.This strap fitting measures 45.88mm in length, 13.08mm in width, 4.49mm in thickness, 5.86g in weight.There is a similar example recorded by Read (Read, 2008, p. 211, no. 764) and recorded on the PAS database (HAMP-140542), (SF-8FA255), (SOM-BA2F57). | Publisher: | http://finds.org.uk | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Identifier: | http://finds.org.uk/database/artefacts/r... | Go to resource |
