Description: | A copper-alloy single-loop buckle with an integral plate. Probably dates from the mid 13th to late 15th century AD (R. Whitehead; 1996; pp. 32).
The frame is roughly D-shaped and has a pointed pin rest, with three moulded segments, at the centre of the outer edge. The plate is sub-rectangular, tapering slightly towards the proximal (attachment) end. The pin is missing, but there is a small rivet hole, containing a corroded iron remnant, at the centre of the distal (frame) end of the plate. Just below this hole, the transition between the frame and the plate is marked by a vertical ridge. At the centre of the plate is a small rivet hole.
The buckle measures 32mm long by 12.3mm wide and 2.7mm thick. It weighs 2.93g. | 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
