Description: | A copper alloy buckle frame with an integral forked plate. The buckle would have been of composite construction, with a sheet metal covering over the forked plate. The buckle frame has an oval loop with a projecting point on the outside edge. There is a ridge between the frame and the two parallel forks of the plate, which have stepped internal edges. Between the two forks there is a gap to accommodate the pin (now missing), with a corresponding constriction on the buckle frame. This type of buckle dates from the mid fourteenth to early fifteenth century (Egan and Pritchard 1991, 80). | 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: | 1300
