Complete but worn cast copper-alloy stirrup strap mount dated from AD. c.1000 to c.1100.

There is also some slight iron staining adjacent to the rivet hole at the apex of the mount where it would have been attached to the leather strap. The design of the mount is openwork with three zoomorphic heads…
