Description: | An incomplete cast copper alloy single oval looped buckle frame of Medieval date (1350-1400).The pin is missing.At the front the frame is convex and at the rear, the inner edges, except the bar, are slightly bevelled. The outside edge of the frame is expanded and thickened to form a triangular lip with a central pin groove and pairs of flanking raised transverse bands. The bar is narrowed and offset.12.6 x 24.4 x 3.4mm. Weight: 2.61g. Egan and Pritchard (1991) illustrate a similar buckle (p.73, No.300) from a c.1350-1400 context; they suggest this style of buckle "was a long-lasting fashion, in use from the late 12th to the late 14th century" (ibid p.76).
