Description: | Incomplete Medieval copper alloy D-shaped buckle frame, missing the majority of the axis bar and one end of the outside edge. The axis bar has been twisted upwards. The buckle measures 66.7mm in its present state, but the height if the frame would have originally been c.52mm. It weighs 13.00g.
The outside edge of the frame is oval in section (max.7.5x7.0mm) with a rectangular groove cut for the pin. The outside edge narrows to the ends which are circular in section (2.5mm diameter at the very end - missing on one side of the frame). Beyond this, on the surviving half, is a rounded projection, now bent out of shape but originally the end of the axis bar outside of the frame. The axis bar itself is 1.7mm in diameter and only a short 11mm survives.
The buckle frame is extremely worn and all patina has been lost.
