Description: | Iron possible hinge strap fragment. Wrought iron strap with straight parallel sides, curled into a tight closed loop of internal diameter c.12.6mm at one end. This object may have been nailed to a door or shutter, and would turn on a hinge pivot driven into the frame. This would be a common type of building ironwork of the medieval period, most likely to occur on a building of some scale and status. The larger extent of the strap is lost. Suggested date: Medieval, 1100-1500.Length: 71mm, Width: 19.1mm, Thickness: (strap): 6.9mm, Weight: 50.22gms.
