Description: | A cast copper-alloy single-looped medieval buckle frame with ornate outside edge. The frame's large outer edge has knopped ends which travel slightly outwards. Between the knops are three transverse grooves, delineating two equal ridges. The groove between these latter acts as a pin rest. The pin bar opposite is offset and narrowed. Around it a solid bent pin survives, the tip very slightly abraded. The sides of the frame are bevelled internally on its upper surface. The lower surface is flat. The buckle has corroded to a dark grey-green colour. In London similar buckles have been found in contexts dating from the 13th and 14th centuries. Duly, a wide date range is offered for this example.
