Description: | A cast copper-alloy double-looped buckle of post-medieval date, incomplete in that only one loop survives and it is missing its pin; there are slight vestiges of the other loop at one end of the pin bar. The surviving loop is oval and has a semicircular cross-section; the lower surface is flat. At both ends of the pin bar is a moulded knopped protrusion. There is a double moulding on each outer edge; on one it would have acted as a pin rest. The buckle has been bent slightly in profile. The object is now a dark red-brown colour with patches of off-white corrosion product in places and traces of a possible black coating. A parallel can be found illustrated in Whitehead (1996, 61; ref. 360).
