Description: | Copper alloy buckle with integral plate. The buckle has a sub-oval frame and a trapezoidal plate, with a perforation in the plate immediately below the frame for the pin which is missing. Two perforations for attachment to the strap along the centre of the plate are visible. There is a broken decorative ?foliate terminal to the plate.Buckles with integral plates seem to date in the main to the 13th and 14th centuries (cf Egan, p78), however one similar example found at the Foundry, York dated from the early 15th century (Ottaway, p2890, #13336) although this may be residual or possibly a late example.
