Description: | A cast copper alloy sub-rectangular double loop buckle of 17th century date. The sides of the frame are slightly curvilinear and each corner is squared off to form an irregular octagonally shaped frame. The shorter sides have slightly pointed inner edges. The central bar measures a maximum of 2.80mm in width, although it narrows slightly in the centre. The reverse is flat and undecorated. A similar buckle, albeit rather more abraded, is illustrated in Read's 'History Beneath our Feet' (page 142, no. 908). This is dated to the 17th century. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Payne, Naomi - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
