Massive terret ring made from cast cu-alloy, with an incomplete projection of a twin spur (lipped projection) within the ring. It would also have had a strap bar concealed at the base.

It's very close to an example from Chesters, Northumberland in Jope 2000, 309, 291e and MacGregor 1976, 113. Generally dating from late 1st-mid 3rd century AD. A fine example of this type of object is LANCUM-1F06E0

Cast copper alloy fragment of a sword belt fitting dating from the 16-17th centuries. This would have been one of 3 pieces hanging from the main fitting. It is foliate in design and has broken before the end. The end that is missing would have been a hook to attach it to the main fitting. There is a small circular perforation at the un-broken end in which the remains of an iton rivet sit. A similar mount is illustrated in Brian Read (page no. 39, No. 373)
