Description: | A copper alloy buckle plate dating to the medieval period. The buckle plate is formed from one sheet of copper alloy that would have looped over the strap bar of the buckle; it is likely the buckle would have been of the single loop type. The buckle plate narrows towards the strap bar loop. It has two rivets (extant) at the opposing end to secure the strap in place, and a central hole on both sides of the plate, possibly as a form of decoration. There are angled scores along the edge of the plate as decoration. This style of buckle plate dates from c. AD 1250-1400.
