Description: | An incomplete cast copper-alloy buckle of Medieval date. It is missing the attachment end and pin due to old breaks. The buckle has an oval frame that is D-shaped in section. At the bar end is an integrally cast plate that is D-shaped in section, triangular in form and tapers to old breaks. This has a single transverse ridge where frame and plate meet, with slight projecting knops to either side of the plate and a large central circular pin hole. A central circular rivet hole is visible at the bar end of the plate, but the attachment end is missing due to old breaks. It measures 12.93mm in width, 32.68mm in length, 1.94mm in thickness and 2.01g in weight.This is an incomplete buckle frame with integral plate similar to examples from London (e.g. Egan and Pritchard, 1991: nos. 320-321, fig. 48). It perhaps had usage as a spur buckle or similar and is likely to be of 13th to 14th century AD date. | Publisher: | http://finds.org.uk | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Identifier: | http://finds.org.uk/database/artefacts/r... | Go to resource |
