Description: | A copper-alloy strap end of Medieval date. It is formed from two identical sheets of copper-alloy that are rectangular in form and taper at their base to a projecting oval shaped knop. The attachment end has two large triangular notches, and there are single central rivets with flattend round heads at the attachment end and terminal end. Possible traces of incised decoration are visible at the attachment end of one plate, but the precise form is uncertain due to the preservation of the object. It measures 25.63mm in length, 14.99mm in width, 3.04mm in thickness, and 2.99g in weight.This strap end is of Medieval date, c.14th century AD, as an example from London of identical form but with forked spacer (Egan and Pritchard, 1991: no. 660). | Publisher: | http://finds.org.uk | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Identifier: | https://finds.org.uk/database/artefacts/ | Go to resource |
