Description: | A complete post medieval buckle dating to the period AD 1690 to 1720. The buckle is square in plan and with a double loop frame and a loop chape. The pin for the tongue is separate and set into drilled holes in the frame. There is decoration on the frame of the buckle with an incised line running parallel to the inner side of the frame. At opposing ends, where the tongue rests and opposite, there are diagonal incised lines. There is iron corrosion where the pin is attached to the frame. The object is not flat and the form suggests that the object is likely a shoe buckle, the curve of shoe buckles allowed for an increase in size. This buckle is a Marshall Type V and this type have been dated to the period AD 1660 to 1720.
