Description: | Incomplete Medieval - post medieval iron mount. A wrought iron mount split into two at one end, with one branch tapering to a curved point and the other curling round and terminating in what remains of a rivet hole. The main body of the object has a concave waist resembling a dumbell with two scored lines upon either side. The main trunk terminates again in a break with a rivet hole. The back of the object is flat, probably the side that was in contact with the mounting surface. The shape of the object, with the curved tapering branch, suggests some sort of latch or lever, though the incomplete nature of the object lends it to a number of functions. The object is black in colour with patches of corrosion on the surface.Length: 54.62mmWidth: 11.25mmThickness: 7.26mmWeight: 15.4g
