Cast copper alloy fragment from a medieval harness fitting. It consists of a sub-shield shaped piece with a circular shaft extending from the pointed end. The shaft is short and straight and most likely to be broken but wear makes this difficult to confirm. It is very worn all over and corrosion has caused pitting of the surface. There are small fragments of red enamel on one face of the shield but the design is totally missing. It is possible that the shield had a design on both faces- possibly heraldic in nature. This item is probably from the same group of fittings as harness penda…
