Description: | A copper-alloy single-loop buckle of Medieval date.The buckle is almost complete, but the frame has been bent backwards, towards the upper side of the plate. The frame is roughly 'D-shaped', with a pointed in rest at the centre of the outer side. The plate has been folded around the axis bar and has two roughly rectangular sides, the damaged underside being slightly smaller than the upper side. The two sides of the plate would have been held together by a pair of copper-alloy rivets, one of which remains. The wire pin extends from a slit at the centre of the frame end of the plate, where it is loosely looped around the axis bar. The buckle measures 17.3mm long, up to 16.4mm wide (frame), 6.2mm thick and weighs 2g.
