A flat and incomplete leather object, 175mm in length, probably of post medieval date. The object comprises a strap which terminates in an oval loop with 41mm internal width. This has stitching around the inner and outer edges. The other end tapers to a break, and has stitching holes along both sides. There are also six stitching holes in two lines of three towards the looped end forming a reinforced attachment, suggesting this item was subject to regular tension stress during its use.

A heavily abraded cast copper alloy fragment of uncertain date or function. The object is in 46.8m in length and slightly curved in side profile with a flat sub rectangular cross section. On one side is a 7mm wide prong, probably one of two with the second now lost and a rectangular slot (5mm wide) between. This prong ends in an incomplete spatulate terminal which appears to have been hammered flat. At the base of this prong is a collar or decorative moulding of four ridges to either side. The other end has an old break and there are no markings or other decoration.
