Description: | A damaged and incomplete copper-alloy buckle of medieval date. The object is a D-shaped buckle with moulded decoration on the frame and dates from the mid 13th to early 15th century. The frame measures 22.3mm high by 16.4mm wide and up to 3.4mm thick. It has an offset bar and a pair of grooved knops either side of a pointed pin rest with slot. Three quarters of the plate, which is bent around the axis bar, survive. The two sides are held together by four in-situ copper-alloy rivets, located one at each corner. The pin is missing but would originally have passed through a circular hole at the centre of the frame end. Overall, the object measures 40mm long and weighs 4.75g. | 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: | 1250
