Description: | 1: A double oval looped copper-alloy buckle frame with in situ pin. This frame measures 43mm in length and 20mm in width. It has pointed oval shaped projections at either end each of these has a central longitudinal groove across its front face. The copper-alloy pin is attached to the central bar via an open loop.
2: A copper-alloy double oval shaped buckle frame with an in situ pin. This frame measures 39mm by 21mm in size and has expanded outer edges which taper to a central point which has a central longitudinal groove across their front face. The pin is also copper-alloy and attached to the central bar via an open loop. Slight traces of a white metal coating, probably tinning can be seen on this buckle frame.
3: One half of an incomplete double oval shaped copper-alloy buckle frame. One loop survives and measures 25mm by 17mm in size. The outer edge of the surviving loop is expanded and decorated with transverse grooves on its front face. Traces of a white metal coating can be seen on the front face of the outer edge. The bar has remains of corroded iron adhering to it, as does part of the outer edge, this is likely to be the remains of an iron pin.
These three buckle frames are all early post-medieval and c16th-17th century in date. | 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: | 1540
