Description: | Medieval cast copper alloy strap fitting, a belt mount with a separate rivet, ovoid with V-sectioned engraved grooves on the front face, four running towards the centre from one long side and two from the other. Along the latter there is also a longitudinal groove. The centre of the reverse is hollowed. It is likely that the decoration is an attempt at the representation of a shell, albeit highly stylised, cf. Egan, G. in Griffiths et al. 2007, pl. 20, cat. no. 1141 Length 14.8mm. Width 12mm. Thickness 2.1mm. Length of rivet 4mm.
