Description: | A cast copper alloy buckle of medieval date. The simple frame trapezoidal buckle measures 21.7mm by 21.6mm by 2.9mm and weighs 3.6g. The outside edge is slightly wider than the strap bar. It is decorated with an incised transverse line at the centre point, with two diagonals on each side. The pin is wrapped around the strap bar and tapers to a point. Two broadly similar buckles feature in Egan and Pritchard's 'Dress Accessories' (1991, pp. 96, 99 and 101, nos. 435 [this example has a plate] and 462). Both examples date from c. 1350-1400.
