Description: | A cast copper-alloy strap buckle frame of medieval, mid 14th to early 15th century date. The frame is oval with an integrally cast forked spacer for the separate plate, although this is incomplete. The pin is missing. Similar examples are illustrated in Egan and Pritchard (1991, page 79; Fig 48). These were recovered from contexts dating from 1330 to 1400 AD. The buckle measures 22.81 mm long, 21.37 mm wide, 3.77 mm thick and weighs 2.8 grams. It has a worn green to dark grey patina with traces of a lead solder on the spacer forks.
