Description: | An incomplete copper-alloy frame from a Medieval single-loop buckle.The fragment represents the outer part of the frame. The curved top and bottom sides are of thin section. The outer side is much wider and has two moulded lobes flanking a sheet-metal roller, the latter of which is looped around a central constriction. The piece measures 15.9mm long, 37.9mm wide and 8.7mm thick. The weight is 7.09g.Research into similar buckles from Meols, Cheshire, suggests that this form, with a broad sheet-metal roller, probably dates from the late 13th to early 14th century (Griffiths et al 2007: 90, nos. 554-558).
