Description: | An incomplete buckle dating to the period AD 1660 to 1720.The buckle frame is sub-rectangular in plan. The long sides of the buckle are thicker than the rest of the frame and have simple moulded linear decoration over the point where the spindle would have been attached. Part of the chape is still present and is a loop chape with a single spike. Marshall writes that chapes of this type were in use from the 1690s and were probably exclusively used as a part of shoe buckles.
