The neck and head extend upwards and terminate with the birds beak. The eyes have been crudely drawn on with punches and scratch marks can be seen all over the back of the bird. There is a large rectangular projection extending up from the centre of the birds back. Next to this there is a…

A fragment of a cast copper-alloy 11th-century object, which could be a fragment of a bridle cheek-piece or mount. The object is asymmetrical and is moulded on the upper surface with an intertwining beast. The breaks are not recent. The design is openwork. The reverse is undecorated. The surface of the object is a matt mid yellowish-green colour. It has traces of a whitish substance pushed into the grooves on the upper surface.

Date: 14th - 15th century A fragment of a medieval gold badge or mount, now damaged and incomplete. On one side, a standing robed figure cradling a baby probably represents the Virgin and Child. The reverse side is difficult to interpret, but may represent a vase decorated with a cross, with what may be foliage radiating from it. The edges of the badge are engraved with fluting, and may once have included stitching holes, for attaching to clothing or as a hat badge.

Treasure case : 2009 T124 Object Date: 7th century Description: Gold mount Curved gold panel inlaid with garnet cloisonné. A small, gently curving, sub-rectangular tray set inside a cable-twist gold border. Nine garnets on waffered gold foils are inserted into the tray. The back of the mount is plain except for two areas of damage, which are likely to represent previous attachment points. Discussion: It is unclear what kind of object the small mount might have come from. There are numerous possibilities, including large disc brooches (Avent 1975), buckles or sword fittings. Non-destr…

A cast copper alloy mount or similar object with the remains of a suspension loop. The mount is roughly shield shaped in design, but is slightly concave. On the front of the mount there is a stylised head, in a Romanised/ Neo-classical design. The face has a slender nose, a small mouth and large rounded eyes, within ropework borders.

A cast copper alloy Winchester style mount. The object is tongue shaped and decorated in relief. One end has broken off: the break is worn and there is an iron rivet through the opposite end. The reverse is concave. It is not possible to see the decoration clearly due to the worn and incomplete nature of the object, however this mount is similar in shape and design to the Winchester style strap ends figured by Biddle page 499, ref 1059 and probably dates to the 10th- 11th century.
