Description: | A Meols type 10 copper alloy, oval buckle, c. 1350-1400. It is unfinished, having a casting sprue still in place and may have been mis-cast as the buckle frame is not clear, but is filled with rough metal. The frame has a narrowed and offset bar, and the outer edge is expanded with a knop at each end, and a lipped pin rest in the centre. The buckle has a light green patina. It is 17.1mm long, 19.7mm wide and 4.4mm thick. It weighs 3.63gm. See Meols Catalogue page 84. This buckle is probably evidence of local manufacture. It was found close to a pair of unfinished strap-slides, SWYOR-76F578.
