Object type: STIRRUP
Broad period: EARLY MEDIEVAL
County: West Sussex
Workflow stage: Published
A cast copper alloy sub-triangular stirrup strap mount. The attachment loop and flange are complete. The mount is undecorated and has two circular perforations above the flange. These are slightly out of line with each other. The edges of the triangle are more angular in shape than most mounts of this type. It is possible that this example is a repair or cheaper imitation of the more usual highly decorated examples. The surface has a patchy brown to green patina. This mount dates to the 11th century AD.

Two long 'ears' project backwards to join the remains of the 18mm wide strip. Either side of this strip are two semi-cir…

County: Northamptonshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A cast copper-alloy suspension device probably for a hanging lamp. There is a tall central stem which ends in a large circular loop (c. 9.2mm across externally, c. 3.6mm diameter internally). The stem is roughly circular in section and at its base is a triangle whose corners are all extended into arms. These all appear to be intact (see notes, below), although one arm seems to be bent as a result of old damage. The arms extend for between approximately 13.2mm and 16.7mm from the stem; one appears to be slightly longer than the others. They all terminate in an pierced lug. On the unde…

A cast copper alloy strap slide or mount. It is dumbbell shaped with faceted terminals and chamfered edges. The mount is decorated with a border of punched circles bounding incised decoration of half-moons and pellets. There are two spikes on the reverse, both broken, which may have once formed a rectangular attachment loop. The surface has a dark green patina with areas of reddish corrosion. From the decorative style it is likely to be Roman in date.

The object is a probable crucible fragment, which David Symons (Birmingham Museum and Art Gallery) suggests possibly dates to the 15th to 17th centuries, or Late Medieval to Post Medieval.

It is also very hard and brittle which suggests that the object has been heated at a very high temperature, either over or in a fire. The material has few if any inclusions. The fragment is 71.8mm x 41.1mm in size, is 21.0mm thick and weighs 86.41g. The internal face of the fragment is coated in slag. Th…
