Description: | A cast copper-alloy medieval single-looped buckle with integral plate. The frame is of oval form with a notched lip. A small rounded protrusion extends into the frame at the plate end. Iron corrosion product remains in the piercing at this point - the remnant of the pin. The integral plate is broadly rectangular, tapering slightly towards the attachment end. It features a pair of fairly evenly spaces holes; neither rivet remains. This artefact has corroded to a dark red-brown colour with areas of mid-green patina surviving in places. The attachment end has been bent upwards slightly in profile and the frame has been struck down to one side, both as a result of old damage. A similar buckle can be found in Whitehead (1996, 33; ref. 186).
