An incomplete copper-alloy mount dating to the Roman period, c. AD 43-250. The mount is pelta shaped with a central strand flanked either side by curving rounded lobes. The extent of the remaining mount cannot be confidently determined as the edges are fairly worn. Projecting from one side of the mount is an integrally cast stud. The central strand features a concave groove down its centre. At one end is the stud, the other terminating with a triangular point. The other side of the mount is slightly convex with shallow grooves running around the lobes and towards the tr…

Copper alloy possible mount fragment. Cast straight-sided plate with a collared rounded end with a rivet or other copper alloy inset; if indeed a mount the object is presumably broken at its narrower end. There is the suspicion of a stepped [at expanded end] and partly keeled form [towards the putative broken end] to the display side, though no section views were available to confirm this point.

Copper alloy mount. Cast chip-carved mount with a thin layer of rust covering large areas but not obscuring the nature of decoration. The rust probably comes from the iron rivets which once attached the mount to an important object. The back is plain. This is probably from an ecclesiastical context [cf. Whitby parallels] such as a book cover or a shrine. Another part of the same object was reported from Melton Ross, making this a ‘find of note’ for its significance in tracking the members of a single Viking raiding party. An accompanying text extract suggests an ‘8th …

Copper alloy and iron mount fragment. A fragment of cast copper alloy with straight edges and ends and retaining substantial rusted iron accretions, inluding a bolt or fixing, and staining from the apparent loss of another.
