Description: | A fragment from a cast copper-alloy probable buckle frame, possibly a single-looped example of medieval date. What exists is conceivably the outer edge with an angular protrusion at its centre, rounded at its tip. This features a low central channel which may have acted as a pin rest. This is flanked within the lipped protrusion by two finely incised lines. The rest of the outer edge is decorated with groups of incised transverse lines at either side of the lip. The outer edge is slightly curved with moulded lobed ends. These are divided from the 'sides' of the frame by transverse grooves. These sides are both vestigial having been broken as a result of old damage. The fragment has a dull green surface colour with patches of off-white corrosion product in the recesses.
