Description: | A cast copper-alloy buckle plate of Post-Medieval date (probably), c. 1500-1700.The buckle plate is rectangular in plan, and consists of a sheet of cast copper alloy folded. The plate is incompletely, however, and the fold/hinged portion of the plate is missing. A rivet is found in each outer corner of the plate, and the surface is decorated in relief, possibly depicting an ear of grain, with the head on a thin linear stalk, flanked on each side by on inward curved scroll and one downward curved scroll, which may be leaves.Much of the back plate has been lost.
