Description: | Medieval copper alloy rectangular buckle frame with central bar and remains of inlaid iron wire on the edges. The form, with its rebates on the edges, is a familiar one, as is the curved longitudinal profile. There are many examples on this database (e.g. WMID-7512f4, WILT-B2D185, SOM-EEC700 and SF-E70664). Length 34mm. Width 41.50mm. An example from London was found in a context of c.1270 - c.1350 (Egan and Pritchard 1991, 98-9. fig. 62 no. 443). Whitehead (2003, 77. no. 476) suggests a 15th-century date, while a fragment from a context of 1550 - 1700 in Norwich (Margeson 1993, 28-9, fig. 15 no. 154) was surely residual. The 15th century seems most likely. | Publisher: | http://finds.org.uk | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Identifier: | http://finds.org.uk/database/artefacts/r... | Go to resource |
