Description: | A very corroded incomplete Post Medieval cast copper alloy oval double looped buckle dating to c. 1550-1650 AD. The remains of the buckle consist of one of the double loops creating the frame, with a narrowed strap bar with lobed knops at either end and the remnants of a moulded rosette decoration or roundel at the end of the loop; presumably, this decoration would have been identical on the other side. In addition to missing the other loop of the buckle frame, the pin is also missing. The reverse face of the buckle is undecorated. The buckle fragment measures approximately 33 mm max., 24.05 mm wide at strap bar, 2.72 mm thick and weighs 2.95 grams. A small portion of the buckle dark green in colour with much of its surface covered in lighter green corrosion. For a similar buckle types cf. Whitehead 2003, p 63.
