Description: | An incomplete cast copper alloy buckle of post-Medieval date (c. 1660-c. 1720).The buckle is sub-oval in plan and has drilled holes at the centre on either side to accommodate an iron spindle. The spindle is missing. However, remains of it can be seen within the drilled holes. At the front, moulded decoration is in the form of eighteen contiguous knoblets. On the rear face the inner edges are bevelled and the outer part is largely flat.The surfaces have a shiny green metallic appearance which may be the result of a high tin content. Alternatively, the surfaces may have been tinned.
