Description: | Incomplete post-medieval cast copper alloy double loop buckle frame with one loop entirely missing to old breaks. The remaining loop is D-shaped in plan and section with a flat back. In the centre of the outer edge is a bi-lobed heart shaped moulding, the point of which projects slightly on the inner side of the loop and the lobes on the outer. The strap bar is narrowed and circular in section with large rounded knops at either end. The pin is missing. It is now 23.5mm long by 24.1mm wide by 2.0mm thick; it weighs 2.38 grams.SOM-8D21E1 on this database from South Somerset is very similar with the same form of decoration. Whitehead (2003: 71) illustrates similar frames which he dates to c.1600-1720 AD although none with this particular shape of moulded decoration.
