Description: | A cast copper alloy D-shaped buckle, with an intact buckle plate. The frame has a lipped outer edge. The frame section is relativley square having a flat reverse. The strap bar is slightly narrow and offset. The remains of the iron pin are still present despite being heavily corroded, there is also iron corrosion on the pin rest which suggest the buckle was complete upon deposition into the ground. The plate narrows slightly as it wraps around the strap bar. There are no perforations on the plate, however the rivet which would have secured the plate to the leather strap is still in situ and can be see in section. The surface is mid greyish-green and has a fair amount of corrosion. This buckle dates to the medieval period, circa 1350-1500 AD.
