An incomplete and damaged copper-alloy medieval sheet buckle plate. Half of the plate survives; it would have been created from a broadly rectangular strip twice the length. It is broadly trapezoidal and narrows slightly at the attachment end (W.: 15.6mm). The other end is recessed to accommodate the frame and has broken at this weak point. There is a central notch for the pin at this end; the tabs curve round, one is incomplete. A central perforation towards the attachment end would have held an iron pin judging by the orange/brown corrosion product around it on the lower surface. Th…

A complete medieval to post-medieval sheet copper-alloy rivet. The rivet is made from a kite-shaped piece of copper-alloy rolled into a cone. The top is flattened to form a head. The function for these objects is unclear. However, it is thought that they may have been used for repairing metal vessels.

A sheet plate from a copper-alloy medieval composite strap-end. The plate is trapezoidal in form, narrowing gradually to an tapered end with flattened tip. The second plate is missing. The strap-end is held together by a pair of rivets, both survive. The object has corroded to a variable mid/dark-green colour. It has been bent upwards slightly. It can be dated to the 13th to 14th century and examples can be found illustrated in Egan and Pritchard (1991, 147; ref. 698) and also Griffiths et al. (2007, 134-135; ref. 1552).

A damaged fragment of a copper-alloy strainer/skimmer plate of probable medieval/post-medieval date. Three pierced circular holes of slightly irregular outline are present plus at least six incomplete holes on the four broken edges. Various more complete plates can be found on the database (e.g. WILT-0F6255, GLO-068886 and BH-F41444) and they seem to commonly break up along the perforations. Evidence from excavations in London suggests that most of these artefacts probably date from later medieval to early post-medieval period (see Egan 1998, 155-158). This fragment has corroded to …

A cast copper-alloy medieval strap end. The strap end is a rectangular sheet which has been folded widthways. The two plates are uneven in width, one plate narrows towards the upper half before expanding slightly at the tip. At the opposite edge to the fold there is a single copper alloy rivet through a rivet hole on each plate. There is a 1.15mm gap between the two plates. The strap end is heavily worn, there are possibly a number of notches at the tip around the rivet on one face. The surface of the strap-end has a dark green patina.

A broadly circular mount of medieval date, abraded at the circumference. The mount is of copper-alloy sheet, perforated near the edge at opposing points. One surface is tinned; the other is covered in fine diagonal striations. The perforations are through the coated surface but no rivets survive. For mounts of similar construction see Egan and Pritchard (1991, 166; fig. 107). The edge has been bent slightly as a result of old damage. A similar example can be found on the database: HAMP-4C4148.

A complete, albeit bent, sheet copper-alloy hilt-plate from a medieval whittle-tang knife. The object is broadly lozengiform in plan and has been bent in upon itself slightly at the centre of the plate. It has a broadly central rectangular perforation through the lower surface, remnants of an iron tang remain, the reverse has iron corrosion. The object is corroded with a dark-green patina where it survives, iron corrosion product is visible both on the front and reverse. No decoration is discernible. Such hilt-plates tend to be given a 15th-century date, although they could be earlier.
