Description: | Late Saxon D-shaped buckle frame, worn and corroded, shaped outside edge with four small irregular projections flanking central triangular lobe, reflecting engraved foliate interlace decoration on face, narrowed bar, pin missing, 30 x 35mm. The shape of the frame and decoration suggest influence of the Ringerike style. Closest to examples from Little Dunham (HER 30277) and Tacolneston (35667), other broadly similar examples are known from Corpusty (33442 and 33872), Fring (23001), Grimston (30243), Narborough (34961), West Rudham (28131), Scarning (36096), Snettisham (29871 and 38194), East Walton (30441) and Whissonsett (31800). One example from Hindringham (25659) retains a sheet plate. One from Norwich (156) has been published (Norwich Households no.128). Larger examples have been found in Barton Bendish (18852) and West Walton (18947). 11th century.
