Description: | Medieval copper alloy buckle frame. The frame is D-shaped in plan and rectangular in section. The strap bar is narrowed and offset. The pin is missing. The frame is very thin and possibly owing to this, has been bent in several places. There is no decoration on the front or back. It is 20.1mm long, 15.3mm wide and 1.1mm thick; it weighs 4.00g.Similar buckles are illustrated in Egan (2007:91) e.g. no.486, where thery are categorised as Meols type 2 and it is suggested they date from the late 13th to early 14th centuries (ibid:88).
