Description: | A cast copper alloy single loop buckle of medieval date. The buckle measures 14.15mm by 12.83mm by 3.91mm and weighs 1.89g. The buckle frame is rectangular and its outer edge is decorated with three parallel horizontal grooved lines. The central groove would have functioned as a notch for the pin. The strap bar is narrowed, the pin is missing and the back of the buckle is flat and undecorated. A fairly similar buckle can be seen in Egan and Pritchard's 'Medieval Dress Accessories' (1991, pp. 96, no. 436), although the London example has a plate. This buckle probably dates from the late twelfth to the late fourteenth century.
