Description: | A cast copper alloy single looped D-shaped buckle.
The buckle has a narrowed and off-set strap bar. The frame is uninterrupted; so therefore has no pin recess. The pin is missing. The outer edge of the buckle has been decorated with a moulded design, forming four knops. Projecting back from the strap bar are two lobed knops.
The reverse is flat.
The metal has lost most of its original surface and the metal is a light greyish-green colour and is pitted.
This type of buckle dates from circa 1450 ? 1550. Parallels for this type of buckle can be seen in Whitehead, p25, similar to No. 123. | 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: | 1450
