Description: | An incomplete cast copper-alloy medieval single-looped buckle with integral plate. The buckle's frame is trapezoidal, with a wider outer edge. In the centre of the outer edge is a transverse pin notch which would have accommodated the (now missing) pin. The pin would have been looped around a circular perforation at the frame edge of the plate. Beyond this hole is a removal, with shallower removals to each side; the plate continues in vestigial prongs at the sides. Abutting the pin hole the plate is decorated with faint marks, either rouletting or wrigglework. Both surfaces of the artefact are flat. The outer edge has been bent downwards slightly, in particular to one side. The object now has a mainly light-green colour. A more complete example can be found in Griffiths et. al. (2007, 101, 103; ref. 756).
