Description: | Incomplete cast copper alloy double looped (spectacle) buckle of post-medieval date (1550-1650). The buckle frame is broken centrally and only one of the loops and the central bar remain. The frame of the buckle is sub-rectangular (rectangular with rounded corners) in plan with a central bar to which the pin is fitted. The pin is missing. A small recessed pin rest is present at one edge. There is no incised, cast or applied decoration present. The reverse of the buckle is plain and undecorated. The buckle is a dark grey green colour with a slightly abraded patina that covers all surfaces. The areas where damage has occurred are abraded and have a similar pattern to the frame, suggesting the damage is relatively old. The buckle measures 15.9mm long, 18mm wide, is 2.3mm thick and weighs 1.49 grams.
