Description: | A fragment of a copper-alloy buckle of probable mid 13th to late 14th century AD date (R. Whitehead; 1996; pp. 24).
The fragment consists of the slightly bent and corroded frame from a single-loop buckle. The main part of the frame is D-shaped but there is a large sub-rectangular pin rest, which protrudes from the centre of the outer edge, has a central pin slot, incised lines just inside the inner edge and a decorative knob on each of the two outer corners. The axis bar is of circular section and is offset from the rest of the frame. The reverse of the frame is flat and plain.
It measures 24.2mm high by 18.9mm wide and 2mm thick. The weight is 2.9g. | 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
