Description: | An incomplete cast copper-alloy composite strap end of Medieval date. Part of the incomplete forked spacer survives, the remainder of the object now missing due to old breaks. It is roughly rectangular in form with two tapering triangular prongs that terminate in old breaks. The prongs join at the base of the spacer, where there is an integrally cast acorn-shaped knop with transverse collar. The entire object measures 35.69mm in length (incomplete), 20.32mm in width (partially bent), 3.99mm in thickness, and 3.17g in weight. This is an incomplete composite strap end of Medieval date. It finds near identical parallels in examples published from London (Egan and Pritchard, 1991: nos. 676-680) and is of 14th century AD date. | Publisher: | http://finds.org.uk | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Identifier: | https://finds.org.uk/database/artefacts/ | Go to resource |
