Description: | The buckle is an incomplete double looped oval shaped buckle. It is made from cast copper alloy. These buckles, with the moulded decoration, according to Whitehead (No. 392) date to the mid 16th to mid 17th century. Only half of one loop and one half of the strap bar remains of the frame. The strap bar is sub-trapezoidal in section, and is narrowed compared to the loop. The loop has a rounded upper face and a hollow reverse. . At the apex of the loop there is a moulded integral scalloped semi-circle on the outer edge as decoration. In length the frame is 34.9mm long, and is 29.8mm wide. It weighs 6.47g. The surface of the frame has a well developed mid green patina.
