Description: | A copper-alloy complete buckle in very good condition, 37mm in length and 20mm in width. The frame of this buckle is rectangular in shape, it has a lip on its outer edge for the pin to rest in. The bar is narrowed to accomodate the buckle plate. The pin survives, it is attached to the bar by an open loop and tapers to a point. The plate is formed of a folded sheet of copper-alloy, it is recessed to accomodate the frame. It is rectangular in shape and has three projections at the strap attachment end, these are rectangular in shape and flare into a circular shaped terminals, the two outer projections have circular holes through the centre of their circular terminals. The front face of the plate is decorated with transverse rows of grooves, zig-zags and transverse mouldings. The back face is undecorated. This buckle is most likely to be medieval in date due to the form of the buckle frame. | Format: | text/html | License: | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/ | Publisher: | The Portable Antiquities Scheme | Rights holder: | The Portable Antiquities Scheme | Subjects: | archaeology | Temporal: | 1066
