Description: | An incomplete cast copper alloy trapezoidal shoe or knee buckle with a drilled frame for a separate spindle, dating to the 17th/ 18th century AD (length: 31.5mm; width: 24mm; thickness: 4mm; weight: 6.25g). The buckle has concave ends and moulded, bifid sides. At either end, there are linear recesses where the pin (now missing) would have originally laid. The chape, stud and spindle are also missing. There is no decoration on the bottom of the artefact and is in a worn but fair condition with a dark green/ brown patina.A similar example is illustrated in Whitehead's 'Buckles 1250-1800', page 99, ref no 621.
