Description: | A cast copper-alloy buckle frame for a buckle with composite rigid plate. The buckle has an oval, lipped frame, flat on one side, bevelled on the other. From the frame extends a forked spacer for attachment of the plate (now missing). File marks are evident on all edges of the buckle frame. A number of similar examples are illustrated in Egan and Pritchard's 'Dress Accessories' (1991) (e.g nos 322, 323, 324) and the type is thought to be late medieval, widespread in the mid 14th and early 15th centuries (Egan and Pritchard 1991, 80).
