Object type: MOUNT
Broad period: MEDIEVAL
County: East Riding of Yorkshire

Copper-alloy probable mount of probable medieval date, possibly a 'binding strip' In its present form it is S-shaped. It appears to be a mount with three symmetrical arms, one of which retains a circular tab with tapering knop.
