Title
Early Medieval Mount
Description
English: A fragment of a copper alloy early-medieval (AD c.800-c.900) mount, broken along its end edges and is damaged along one of its long edges. Overall, it measures 20.4mm long, 16.3mm wide and 1.5mm thick. It weighs 1.73g. The two unbroken edges are parallel suggesting that the mount was broadly rectangular. The front face has groved decoration consisting of a ladder patterned border along one edge and curving shapes (possibly zoomorphic or floral) in the middle. This decoration is reminiscent of the Trewiddle Style used on Thomas Class A, Type 1 strap-ends which date to the 9th century.
