Description: | A complete copper alloy horse harness pendant of later medieval or post-medieval date. The harness pendant is quite large and has four sub-circular cells arranged around a central cell - all of the cells are in openwork and their inner and outer edges are bevelled. There is a small suspension loop set perpendicular to the main frame, which would have enabled the pendant to be hung from a harness mount. The upper surface of the harness pendant has been gilded and about a third of this remains; the reverse is flat and undecorated. The pendant has a brownish-red patina and its size and form suggests a later medieval or possibly early post-medieval date of c. 1350-1600.
