Description: | An incomplete Post Medieval cast copper alloy shoe buckle, dating from AD c.1720 to AD 1790. The frame is sub-rectangular with rounded corners and has a drilled hole at the top and bottom of the frame for a separate spindle. The frame is broken with one end missing. The frame has a moulded decorative line around the edge, the reverse side is plain. The type VII loop chape (Whitehead 2003; p 103) has two spikes, one of which has broken away and the pitchfork double tongue is intact. Both are mobile on the spindle. The breaks are old and worn. Other examples of this style of buckle are recorded on the PAS database, for examples see DEV-106E67 and LANCUM-EDD681. A similar buckle is published by Whitehead (2003; p104, No.668).
