Description: | A Medieval, cast, copper-alloy, single loop buckle with sheet copper-alloy plate. The buckle frame is oval in plan and D-shaped in section. I has an ornate outer edge with two lobed knops flanking two transverse ridges and a central, notched lip. There is a narrowed, and offset, strap bar which the decorated plate wraps around. The plate is narrowed to fit the strap bar and has a central notch cut out to accomodate the pin. The pin is missing but iron staining around the strap bar suggests that it was an iron pin that has now corroded away. The plate is rectangular in plan. On the upper face there is a single, raised line around the outer three edges. To either side of this line, and along its entire length, are stamped triangular indentations, creating a rouletted effect. The lower face of the plate is undecorated. There is a single, drilled hole for a rivet in the centre of the outer edge. The rivet is missing.
