Description: | An incomplete sheet copper-alloy mount of Medieval date. The surviving fragment is flat, rectangular in form, and terminates on at least one edge in old breaks. At one corner (bottom?) is a single circule rivet hole. The front face has incised decoration comprising a possible black letter N, the gaps between the arms of the letter filled with rocker decoration. The entire object is very worn, and measures 24.35mm in length, 18.59mm in width, 1.05mm in thickness, and 1.37g in weight.This is an incomplete mount or decorative strap fitting similar to examples published from London (Egan and Pritchard, 1991: no. 1050). It is of probable later Medieval date, c.14th-15th centuries AD.
