Record ID: SUR-2C0F0B
Object type: HINGE
Broad period: POST MEDIEVAL
County: Surrey
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A copper alloy hinge from a small box, possibly for weights or a balance and of probable post medieval date. The hinge has two plates of identical size and pointed sub triangular shape, both have decorative cusped sides with small terminal points. At the centre of each plate is a circular aperture with three small rivet holes around it. The plates are hinged on an iron spindle which is retained. This is seized in the folded position. The outer surfaces of the plates can't be seen so it is unclear whether there may have originally been any decoration.

A probable Medieval copper-alloy harness pendant dating to circa AD 1200-1400.
