Description: | A Medieval copper alloy buckle (AD1150-1450). The buckle has an oval frame, with D-shaped cross-section and offset bar. Along the outer edge, the frame has moulded decoration comprising an expanded section (length 13.66mm) with three transverse grooves. Presumably the central groove would have acted as a pin rest. The pin is missing. Mid green patina.
It is similar to no. 294 found in London although the mouldings differ slightly. (Egan, 1991: 73).
Dimensions: length 15.99mm; width 18.55mm; thickness 2.16mm; weight 1.79g.
