Description: | An incomplete cast, copper alloy single loop buckle frame. A sub-triangular frame with an expanded, rectangular outer edge. The sides of the frame are narrowed from the outer edge. There are slightly expanded knops where the bar would have connected to the frame. The bar is missing, but would probably have been narrowed and offset from the frame.The expanded outer edge or lip was cecorated on the front with two groups transverse parallel ridges flanking a wide undecorated space where the missing pin would have rested. The back is flat and undecorated. Whitehead dates these buckles to the late 13th and 14th centuries (Whitehead, R, 1996, "Buckles: 1250 - 1800", p. 24)
