Description: | A corroded iron buckle frame of possible Medieval to Post-Medieval date. It is square in form and section with a badly corroded, separately cast, iron pin folded around one side and tapering to a sharp point. The entire object demonstrates extensive signs of iron corrosion and encrustation. It measures 27.82mm in height, 27.71mm in width, 4.52mm in thickness, and weighs 7.69g.This buckle frame is similar to late Medieval and Post-Medieval examples noted in London (Egan and Pritchard, 1991: no. 430; Egan, 2005: no. 98), as well as Post-Medieval examples from Norwich (Margeson, 1993: no. 204). These indicate a possible 15th-17th century AD date for the current example, although a later date cannot be ruled out entirely.
