Description: | Probably the fragment of a cast copper alloy brooch or buckle pin dating from the late medieval or late post-medieval period, i.e. c. AD1200-1700. The pin is flat and has a rectangular cross-section which suggests that it is a buckle pin rather than a brooch pin which are usually circular in cross-section. The very end of the pin looks broken but worn so it may have carried some damage in antiquity already. The other side is bent into a loop, but half of it is broken off, which is probably how it was lost.
