A sheet copper alloy Medieval belt mount or strap-end fragment. It is rectangular and has been folded in half widthways. One terminal has rounded corners, and comes to a small point at the centre. The opposite terminal has a small semi-circular indent at its centre, and the two corners thus formed are each perforated with a rivet hole. One corner is square and the other is rounded. If unfolded, it resembles one side of a composite strap-end, but could have been used as a mount. The object measures 36.6mm (unfolded) in length, 11.8mm in width, and weighs 1.83g.
