Title

Description
English: Recorded at the Hidden Treasure Finds Day at National Museums & Galleries of Wales. Copper alloy Saxon strap end, probably dating to the 9th Century AD, and belonging to Thomas' Type A. The strap end is made on a strip of sub-triangular copper alloy sheet, with a single copper alloy rivet employed to secure the strap. The face is decorated with an eroded zoomorphic terminal before a panel, split along its length by an incised line, each side containing two short arcs. The greater part of the face is made up of panel containing an incised diagonal cross, the arms of which are in-filled with transverse lines. A further incised line containing transverse marks, arcs between the top arms of the cross. The rear of the strap end is plain.
