A post-medieval copper-alloy hooked strap mount (c. 17th century). The tip of the hook is now missing, lost to an old break. The central portion of the mount is circular in plan, with a domed upper surface and hollow underside. At the apex is a rounded projection with a circular rivet hole, basal collar and surmounting knop. At the base of the domed portion, two transverse collars mark the start of the rearward hook. A copper-alloy rivet projects backwards from behind the hook's collars. Read (2008) illustrates a similar example, no. 813, which he dates to the 17th century.

Broad period: ROMAN
County: Central Bedfordshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A copper-alloy artefact of probable Roman date. No parallel could be found for this piece. Stylistically, it has much in common with Roman nail cleaners and tweezers (see Crummy 1983: 58-62); however, the form (see below) suggests it is a strap fitting and possibly served a purely decorative function. The artefact has been made from a strip of metal which has been folded widthways, forming two sides of equal length separated by a gap of a few millimetres. The upper side has a perforated, slightly recessed sub-circular loop at the top; this tapers into a collar decorated with two tra…

Cast copper alloy strap fitting (belt mount / bar) of probable post-medieval date (1500-1700). The strap fitting is broadly sub-rectangular and D shaped in cross section; the edges are bevelled / faceted.

The reverse face of the fitting is irregular but broadly flat and undecorated. Two cast sub-rectangular projections (hooks) extend from either end of the fitting; both are broken. These hooks would pass through the strap leather and hold the fitting in place…
