Description: | A cast copper alloy rectangular shoe or knee buckle, with a drilled frame for separate spindle. The remains of an iron pin survive as corrosion in the spindle holes. There is no pin recess. The outer edges of the frame are serrated, with moulded grooves on the sides and ends of the frame. This buckle would once have had a copper alloy stud chape and tongue, which no longer survives.The buckle is a dark greyish-brown colour and the surface is slightly pitted. These buckles date from circa 1690 - 1720. Parallels for this type of buckle can be seen in Whitehead, 2003, p101, No. 644.
