A medieval copper alloy strap fitting, consisting of the eye part only, into which a similar hook would have fitted. It measures 28.35x9.99x7.02mm and weighs 4.96g. The object is rectangular in shape with a rectangular loop at one end (parallelogram in cross-section, internal measurements 8.84x4.02mm) and a triangular-sectioned body at the other. The body is flat to the reverse with a circular-section integral rivet at one end, retaining its circular rove. Compare Read (2008) p.225 nos.807 and 808, which he suggests are possibly from a sword-belt and c.16th - 17th century in…

An incomplete copper alloy unidentified object, probably a strap distributor of Medieval date (1100-1500). It measures 42.39x9.15x(max)5.79mm and weighs 4.65g. The object comprises a single piece of parallel-sided sheet copper alloy, 1.09mm thick at one end and expanding to 3.32mm thick at the other, before the edges are 'pinched' together to give the maximum thickness (which is 2.54mm wide). At this point the object appears broken. There is an iron rivet at either end, corroded in situ. To one face the object is decorated all along its length with a line of conjoined X grooves, t…

A fragment of a possible Medieval (1100-1500) zoomorphic strap-end (possibly), measuring 25.83x8.22x7.22mm and weighing 7.01g. The object is oval in cross-section at the (old) break (max width and thickness) and narrows at the end to 5.21x3.70mm. This end resembles a worn snout with brow ridge behind. It narrows in thickness from one side only to give a slope between nose and brow ridge. It is uncertain what this object would have been part of, although the zoomorphic style suggests a Medieval date.
