Description: | Copper alloyBuckle Plate, as identified by finder; alternatively a strap end. A pair of slightly mis-matched rectangular plates of thickness 0.8mm, presumably found together and therefore taped to each other by the finder. One plate - the smaller - bears a stepped end which may have engaged a buckle frame; the other plate lacks this feature but may be broken, bent or torn at this end. The smaller plate with stepped end bears a rivet of diameter 2.1mm which may have engaged the other plate, the latter bears the stub of a corresponding rivet and a further two empty rivet holes of diameter 1.4mm and 1.8mm. These features may indicate repair or modification. Both plates bear longitudinal incised decoration, alongside the stepped end on the smaller fragment, and centrally on the larger. Suggested date: Medieval, 1250-1350. Length: 29.4mm, Width: 12.2mm, Thickness (both plates): 2.8mm, Weight: 3.03gms.
