Description: | A near complete post-Medieval cast copper-alloy double-looped asymmetrical buckle (c. 1575-c. 1700).The frame is composed of a 'D'-shaped loop and rectangular loop with the join between the two forming the strap bar. At each end of the bar there is a small pointed knop. The strap bar has a sheet copper-alloy chape which is sub-triangular in plan with a rectangular slot to accommodate the iron pin, which is missing. The narrow end of the chape is incomplete due to breaks or corrosion.The frame is convex at the front and flat at the rear, being broadly D-shaped in section. Similar buckles have been published and dated c. 1575-1700 (Whitehead. 'Buckles 1250-1800', 1996: 90-92).
