Description: | The Post Medieval buckle is made from cast copper alloy. Whitehead dates this type of buckle to the late 16th to 17th centuries. No. 564 is similar to the recorded example. In plan the frame is asymmetrical with one trapezoidal loop and the other one semi-circular. The strap bar is narrowed and is triangular in section. The edges of the frame are bevelled on the exterior and interior edges. The pin is missing, but there is iron staining on the strap bar suggesting the pin was made of iron. Otherwise the surface of the frame is corroded, with traces of a mid green patina. In length of the frame is 18.1mm and 13.9mm wide. It weighs 1.04g.
