Description: | A copper-alloy Single-loop buckle of medieval date. A similar buckle was found in excavations in London (see Egan and Pritchard, 1991, p. 102, no. 472).
The buckle has a D-shaped frame with an integral loop. The upper surfaces of the frame are convex, sloping downwards and outwards. The loop, through which the belt would have been threaded, is rectangular and has flat surfaces. At the centre of the axis bar is a pin constriction and half way down the frame's outer side is a pin rest. The pin itself is missing and the buckle is bent and corroded.
The artefact measures 24.6mm long, 30.4mm wide and 3.8mm thick. The weight is 3.23g. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Watters, Julian - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
