Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Fragment of a cast copper alloy mount or fitting, probably of Medieval to Post Medieval date. The mount is rectangular, slightly offset at a 10 degree angle at one end. It is rectangular in cross section. Both ends of the mount have worn breaks. One of these breaks cuts across an incomplete integrally cast copper alloy rivet or lug.
