Record ID: SWYOR-F3E2D1
Object type: MOUNT
Broad period: POST MEDIEVAL
County: County of Herefordshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A copper alloy mount with an extensive amount of silvering surviving. The mount is oval but has been damaged and is now bent double, measuring 35.5mm long, 33.4mm wide and 19.2mm thick. The front of the mount is decorated with sinuous incised patterns, raised pellets, punched decoration and a lobed motif in relief which is unintelligible. There is a lump of copper alloy corrosion on the reverse which may be the remains of the attachment mechanism at one end of the mount; the other end is broken. The mount probably dates from the post-medieval period and may have been a harness decoration.
