Early Medieval, copper alloy strap end, which does not fit into Thomas's classification but is best seen as a variant of his Class A.

These lines are inlaid with a white substance which appears soft. It is not soil and is notably absent from the surviving slot of the split end, again suggesting that it is a feature of the strap ends dec…
