Description: | A cast copper alloy rectangular double loop buckle dating to c.1350-1500. The buckle frame has two rectangular loops with a pin notch in the centre of one loop. It has a plain integral strap bar with an integral projecting rectangle loop at one end. The pin is now missing.Buckles with smaller integral projecting rectangular loops are possibly sword belt hangers (Egan and Pritchard 1991, 98-99; Whitehead 1996, 76). They have been stratigraphically dated by Egan and Pritchard (ibid) to AD 1350-1400 in London but Whitehead (ibid) provides a wider date range which has been used here.
