Description: | A cast copper-alloy buckle frame with separately cast plate of Medieval date. It is complete with the exception of the pin, which is now missing due to old breaks. The frame is D-shaped in form, oval shaped in section, and with offset and narrowed bar. The separately cast plate is formed from a single rectangular strip that is folded around the bar to produce an upper and lower plate, the lower plate beng shorter in length and narrower than the upper. It has rectangular frame recesses, a central circular pin slot and both plates have a single circular rivet hole at the attachment end. This buckle measures 13.86mm in width at frame, 11.52mm in length at frame, 29.73mm in length including plate, 1.94mm in thickness at frame, and weighs 2.18g. It is similar to an example from Norwich (Margeson, 1993: no. 144) and is of 14th century AD date. | Publisher: | http://finds.org.uk | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Identifier: | http://finds.org.uk/database/artefacts/r... | Go to resource |
