Description: | Cast copper alloy buckle, D shaped with two highly simplified animals' heads facing each other across the bar. The bar is round sectioned 1.5mm diameter, the frame is D sectioned, 4.2 x 4.0 with a straight inner edge. Buckles of this form are seen as eleventh century with the animals' heads being of ultimate Urnes origin. See Griffiths, Philpot and Egan 2007, Pl. 8 Nos. 311-13 and AR Goodall, 1991, ('The copper alloy and gold' in P Armstrong, D Tomlinson and DH Evans Excavations at Lurk Lane Beverley, 1979-82, Sheffield, p148, Fig. 114, No. 583) where again a tenth or eleventh century date was suggested.
