Description
English: An incomplete copper alloy probable strap end, of Early Medieval dating (8th to 11th Centuries AD).

The strap end is rectangular in plan, and section. Both long edges are complete, whereas both short ends are incomplete, exhibiting old, predepositional breaks. The top edge exhibits the remains of four circular perforations (holes).

The main part of the strap end comprises a rectangular panel with interlace decoration. The areas between the interlace strands is recessed. The reverse is plain and undecorated. A row of four partially drilled holes, located centrally on the reverse, towards the base of the panel.
