Description: | An incomplete cast copper-alloy double-looped oval buckle of Post Medieval date (c. AD 1500-1650). The buckle is incomplete as the pin is absent. It is formed of two oval loops with 'D' shaped apertures in plan, with a sub-hemispherical section across the frame and a triangular section at the pin bar. The interior edges of the frame are bevelled steeply, whilst the exterior edge slopes more gently. At either end of the pin bar are two cast moulded knops, which are sub-triangular in plan and raised above the frame. The underside of this buckle is flat, whilst all surfaces are undecorated. This buckle has a mid-green colour overall and can be paralleled by Whitehead (1996: 54, no. 302 but without decoration).This buckle measures 32.15mm across the frame, with a length of 26.1mm, and a thickness of 2.3; it weighs 4.56 grams.
