Description: | A cast copper-alloy single-looped medieval buckle frame with ornate outside edge. As a buckle this is an incomplete example in so far as it is missing its pin and plate. The frame's expanded outer edge has knopped ends which travel outwards slightly. Delineating the knops are fine, raised transverse ridges. Three grooves between these create a further four knops, the central pair of which would have acted as a pin rest. On the internal face of the outer edge are two incised transverse lines just inside the external ridges. The pin bar opposite is offset and narrowed, with a small unfiled ridge internally, just off centre. The frame between is flat. The buckle has corroded to a dark grey colour with some patches of off-white corrosion product. A similar buckle can be found illustrated in Griffiths et al. (2007, 91; ref. 527).
