Description: | A cast copper alloy composite buckle dating to the medieval period. The buckle consists of the forked composite spacer, missing the two rectangular sheet metal plates that would have been connected by a rivet. The pin is also missing, but the pin rest, a small stub projecting from the outer edge of the circular frame, is intact. The circular loop has a rectangular section and its surfaces are covered in tooling marks. In London, buckles of this form were found in contexts dating to c. 1350-1450 (Egan and Pritchard, 1991, Fig. 49).
