Description: | A complete copper-alloy buckle with an oval shaped frame and an integral plate, 37mm in length and 16mm in width. The frame measures 16mm in width and 13mm in length, in the centre of the outer edge there is a rectangular shaped protruding knop with a central groove, which acts as a pin rest. The integral plate is rectangular in shape measuring 27mm in length and 9mm in width, it tapers towards its terminal end. There is a circular perforation through the plate for the pin, which remains in situ attached via an open loop, it is copper-alloy and tapers to a point. Beyond this the plate has a central copper-alloy rivet in situ and a rivet hole near to its terminal. The front face of the plate has transverse moulding at both ends, the back face is flat. Similar buckles with integral plates have been discovered in London and are dated to the mid 13th to the mid 14th centuries (Egan and Pritchard 1991, 78-79, fig 48). | 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: | 1350 | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Identifier: | http://www.finds.org.uk/database/artefac... | Language: | en-GB | Format: | text/html | Go to resource |
