Description: | A complete copper-alloy buckle frame of post-medieval date. The buckle is of double-looped asymmetrical type with some moulded decoration. The outer edge of the rectangular loop bears six lobed knops, the two outer ones being larger, lobed protrusions also project from either end of the strap bar and the rounded loop of the frame has two single knops projecting outwards, one each at the point of the curve between the sides and the outer edge of the loop. The pin and chape are missing. The metal has a silver-green patina.A similar example is illustrated in Whitehead, 'Buckles' p.92, no.577 and is dated to circa AD 1575 - 1700.
