Medieval bar mount
Description
English: Medieval copper alloy bar mount from a belt with central and terminal lobes, measuring 24.6x11.9mm and weighing 2.51g.

The two terminal lobes are solid with a copper alloy rivet (in situ and bent to one side) at the centre; the central lobe is domed with a band of decoration 5.5mm wide. The decoration comprises horizontal and vertical grooves crossing each other to give tiny raised squares.

The bar mount weighs 2.51g. Similarly decorated bar mounts with central and terminal lobes from London date to the second half of the 14th century (Egan & Pritchard 1991 nos.1160 and 1161).
