Description: | A corroded single-looped sub-rectangular buckle of post-medieval date. The strap bar is narrowed, but level with the rest of the buckle. The pin is missing. The buckle is moulded, with concave sides which flare out to the buckle's maximum width at the corners. The curved outer edge is externally bevelled; on the lower surface it is concave. The internal side of the outer edge has a central curved protrusion within which the pin would have sat centrally in its triangular groove. The buckle now has a red-brown colour with patches of green corrosion product. Sub-rectangular buckles can be found illustrated in Whitehead (1996, 28). Whitehead only offers a wide date range presumably due to the lack of stratified examples.
