Description: | A cast copper alloy buckle of post-medieval date. The rectangular double loop buckle measures 38.3mm by 22.2mm by 1.7mm and weighs 3.8g. The frame has pointed outside edges and an external semi-circular knop at each end of the narrowed central bar. The pin is missing and there is a slight linear groove in the centres of both side knops. The back is flat and undecorated. There are traces of silvering or tinning in some areas. A similar buckle from Newton Abbot in Devon can be seen in Read's 'History Beneath our Feet' (1995, p. 144, no. 929). This example has been dated to c. 1600-50. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Payne, Naomi - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
