An incomplete copper-alloy artefact, probably representing part of a Roman mount. The central portion of the mount is drop-shaped, projects upwards and is hollow on the underside, with a step at the base. A flat area surrounds this design, at the top extending upwards into the remains of a parallel-sided projection. On the reverse is what is probably a rivet. This rivet, located at the base of the hollow, is of rectangular section and forms a right angle with the back of the mount. Dimensions: 31.4mm long, 19.6mm wide, 11.6mm deep (including rivet).

An incomplete and worn cast copper-alloy Roman openwork belt mount probably dating to the 3rd century AD. The mount is pelta shaped in plan and hemispherical in section, with a flattened underside and convex upper surface. Both of the original terminals have broken short of their intended form, whilst a small section of the central projection remains but this has also broken short of its intended length. On the reverse, an integral circular in section shank projects at 90 degrees to the body of the mount, and terminates in a wide flattened head; this would have secured the mount to a l…
