Description: | A cast copper alloy single looped D-shaped buckle, Medieval in date. The buckle has a narrowed and off-set strap bar. The opposite edge of the frame is thickened with no pin recess. The strap bar is flanked on either end by a knop. No traces of gilding can also be seen on the buckle. Attached to the strap bar is the buckle plate. The plate is also roughly square in shape tapering slightly to the opposite edge. The plate has been cut with a pin restriction and then folded around the back, around the strap bar, forming a much smaller back plate. There are two rivet holes surviving in the corners nearest to the strap bar and one broken hole can be seen in one of the opposite corners. The entire plate has traces of gilding on the surface. The main plate is undecorated. The pin also survives. The back plate and reverse of the buckle frame are undecorated. The metal is a dark brownish-green colour.
