Description: | A cast copper-alloy single loop buckle of 13th century date.
The frame is complete with pin.
The buckle is D-shaped in plan. The outer frame is 9.58mm in width and set perpendicular, that is to say vertical, relative to the rest of the frame. This face has worn decoration incised by punched dots to form a possible vegetation motif.
The pin is formed of a single sheet of copper alloy that is C-shaped in section. The connecting end is hooked to form a simple hinge. The terminal is corroded, and the pin extends beyond the upper frame.
This buckle is a Marshall Medieval type 1A (fig. 5, no. 2).
This object was found by divers in the River Tyne downstream from the Roman bridge at Corbridge. | 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: | 1200
