A fragment of a copper-alloy mount of late early-medieval to medieval date. It has been broken at both ends; at one end having tapered to a narrow width, at the other through a perforation for a rivet that no longer survives. Just after the hole is a moulded animal head with gaping jaws, a curved length emerging from its mouth. On the head there are two raised triangular 'ears', a lozenge shaped 'head', two raised ridges for 'eyes' and a short 'snout'. The curved length is sub-triangular just beyond the mouth but develops a D-shaped in cross-section as it tapers and curves. The mo…
