The mount is lozenge-shaped with a domed centre and separate rivet. The mount is complete, except for the rivet (with a length of 17.5mm, a width of 14.1mm, a depth of 4.0mm and a weight of 1.3g). Two of the opposing sides of the mount are bevelled while the other two are square-cut. The domed area is circular (with a diameter of 9.0mm) with the hole to accommodate the rivet at the apex (with a diameter of 2.8mm). The rear of the boss is dished. Remnant traces of a dark green surface patina survive, elsewhere the mount is brown.

The mount can be broadly paralleled with a square example recorded by Egan & Pritchard (1991, p 197, no. 1061)  from an excavation in London and recovered from an early to mid-fifteenth century context. Egan & Pritchard suggest that mounts of this form may be from book covers rather than belts or straps and continue in use into the post-medieval period (ibid).
