Description: | A Late Medieval copper-alloy bar mount.The mount comprises a domed oval with projecting lobe at the top and bottom ends. A central band of transverse grooves decorates the domed portion, with incised nicks on the interspersing ridges creating a ropework effect. Both of the rounded lobes have an in situ copper-alloy rivet. The undersides of both the central portion and lobes are hollow.Dimensions: 18.9mm long, 9.3mm wide, 5.5mm high. Weight: 1.81g.Two similar mounts were found in excavations in London, both in mid 14th to late 14th/early 15th century contexts (Egan and Pritchard 1991: 213/fig. 134, nos. 1160 and 1161).
