Description: | Incomplete copper alloy late Medieval to early Post-Medieval buckle frame. The frame takes the form of a five petalled flower. Each petal has bevelled inner and outer edges and a small groove between it and the next one. The upper surface may be decorated with multiple incised transverse lines, but these are difficult to make out because of erosion. The reverse is flat and undecorated. There is a thin central bar. The pin is missing and orange erosion around one end of the bar suggests that it was probably iron. Whitehead (2003, p.47) dates these buckles to c.1450-1550. Length: 25.05mm, Width: 26.92mm, Thickness: 2.30mmWeight: 4.04g
