Description: | A cast copper alloy single looped rectangular buckle. The strap bar is narrow. The frame is complete and the pin survives. A buckle plate also survives, the front plate is wider and longer than the back plate. Both are undecorated. The plates are formed from one sheet of copper alloy, bent around the strap bar. There is a notch in the bend to allow the pin to be fitted. There is a rivet hole in the terminal of the plates, which still contains the rivet. The metal is a light greyish-green colour. These buckles date from circa AD 1250 - 1600. Parallels for this type of buckle can be seen in Whitehead, 2003, p23.
