Description: | Post Medieval cast copper-alloy double looped buckle frame with openwork decoration. The loops are square surrounded by extensive openwork giving an almost oval outline to the buckle. The frame is flat and rectangular in section. There are trilobed expansions at each end of the slightly narrowed strap bar and bilobed expansions at the corners and centre of the outer edge. These expansions are joined by arched lines creating the openwork. The strap bar is mostly missing to old breaks. It is 48.0mm long by 31.2mm wide and 2.2mm thick; it weighs 7.54 grams.Whitehead (2003) illustrates two very similar buckles (page 80, No.498 and 499) which he dates to c.1620-1690 AD.
