Description: | A fragment of a medieval, asymmetrical, copper alloy buckle c. 1350-1450. The fragment consists of the rectangular strap loop and the central bar, which is notched in the centre to accommodate the pin. The main loop, which was probably oval, is missing, leaving only a small projection of metal at each end of the central bar. The copper alloy pin remains in place, looped round the bar. The fragment is 24.3mm in length, 12.3mm wide and 3mm thick. It weighs 2.63gm. A very similar example can be seen in Whitehead's "Buckles 1250-1800", p.87, No.539.
