Description: | Medieval cast copper-alloy rectangular single looped buckle with strap plate. The pin is missing. The outer edge of the loop is widened and tapers in thickness to the slightly pointed outer side. There is a central transverse groove across the front of the outer side in which the pin would have rested. On the back are two transverse incised lines in the centre angled outwards towards the outer edge. The strap bar is recessed. The strap plate is a simple rectangular piece of copper alloy sheet bent in half over the strap bar with a central slot for the pin at the bend and slightly recessed corners to fit the frame. There is a single attachment hole at the end opposite the buckle frame.Griffiths et. al. (2007, pg 99, no. 710) illustrates a similar buckle which they date to the late 14th century (ibid, pg. 97) and categorise as Meols type C.
