A medieval copper-alloy folding strap-clasp
The frame is sub-rectangular in plan, its horizontal sides bowing outwards slightly. A sheet metal roller has been attached to the vertical outer side of the frame, and the rectangular plate has been doubled around the axis bar. A single rivet hole, centrally located at the non-frame end, marks the point at which a rivet (now missing) would have held the plate to the strap. At the frame end, an attached piece of corroded iron wire suggests that the strap-clasp may later have been converted into a single-loop buckle by inserting a pin.

A copper-alloy sword/dagger scabbard chape of Medieval date.
The chape has been made from a piece of sheet metal which has been rolled into a cone and then partially flattened. The seam is split and distorted and this exposes traces of solder within. It is presumed the seam is located at the back of the object. The chape's point is formed from a petal closure which is now very distorted. The front is scalloped at the top and there are two circular perforations, presumably decorative, which are located at different heights, a short distance down from the top, close to each edge. In …
