Description: | A post-Medieval cast copper-alloy buckle chape (c. 1690-c. 1720). The chape has a loop with concave sides and convex top with a single tongue at the centre of the inner side of loop. The base of the loop is formed of two integral cylinders joined by a small semi-circular plate. The cylinders hold the remains of an iron spindle. This chape is corroded in places and some of the mid-green patina is lost. The spindle remains are corroded. 36.0 x 26.9 x 3.1.mm. Weight: 3.64g. Whitehead 1996: 96-7 suggests that these chapes date from c.1690 to 1720 AD.
