Description: | A cast copper alloy buckle dating to the Medieval period. The object is a single looped D-shaped buckle. The strap bar is narrowed and offset. The frame is decorated with a single barrel moulding. The buckle plate remains attached to the strap bar and consists of a single sheet of copper alloy which has been folded over and a notch cut to house the pin. The pin is missing. The plate is secured with a single rivet at the terminal end which measures 4.52mm in diameter. The patina is mostly missing apart from a couple of small patches where it is mid-brown. The remains of gilding can be seen down one edge of the buckle plate. It can be dated from c.1250-1450.
