Description: | Three copper alloy loops, probably from a chain of uncertain date, possibly Medieval to Post Medieval, circa (AD 1200 - 1900). The loops are circular and curved, forming a 'C' shape in profile. Each loop has a diameter of between 19.6mm to 21.7mm. The loops of the chain are similar in form to (SWYOR-2E63BD) which was discovered in North Yorkshire. As suggested in this record; this example is unlikely to be from chain as it was usually made of iron, the links were usually smaller, and were usually riveted into a loop.The object measures 48.55mm in length (this includes the three loops), the width of the chain measures a maximum of 21.7mm and the chain weighs 11.2 grams.
