Description: | Cast copper alloy trapezoidal shoe or knee buckle with a drilled frame for a separate spindle dating 1660 to 1729 AD. The frame has concave sides in plan and a flat base and a convex profile with a bevelled internal edge. The pin bar is recessed from the rest of the frame and still holds the remains of the iron pin and stud or anchor chape (the terminal is missing so it cannot be determined which one). Whitehead (1996) illustrates similar examples on page 99, Nos.616 & 625, which are dated from c.1660-1720. Read (1988) illustrates another example on page 145, No.944, which is dated from c.1660-1720s. The buckle frame is 20 mm long and 14mm wide.
