Description: | A cast copper alloy, Post Medieval buckle dating from AD1620 to AD1680. The frame is rectangular in plan with the outer edge tickened and projecting to a triangular point. The central strap bar is narrowed, is slightly convex and has a rectangular cross section. At each end of the strap bar is a rounded knop. The pin is missing. The upper surface has the remains of a treatment, probably tinning.The buckle measures 23.55m in length, 20.69mm in width, 2.69mm in thickness and weighs 3.61g.It is likely that this was originally a double looped buckle and the second loop has been lost due to breaks close to the strap bar. The breaks are now very worn. Similar examples are illustrated in Whitehead (2003, pg. 82), no. 513.
