Description: | A cast single-looped copper-alloy buckle frame of medieval date. The small buckle frame is oval with a lipped outer edge. The pin bar is offset and narrowed; the loop of the wire pin survives in place. The rest of the pin is missing. The upper surface is bevelled externally; the lower surface is flat. The lip features a central, transverse pin groove. The frame has a dark-green patina with some patches lighter as a result of corrosion. There are suggestions of fine file marks all over the frame. Buckle frames of similar form can be found illustrated in Egan and Pritchard (1991, 75; fig. 45). They have been found in London in contexts dating mainly to the 14th century AD.
