Description: | A copper-alloy single-loop buckle, dating from the Medieval period.The frame, which has been bent backwards, is sub-oval, with a projecting, 'D-sectioned', transversely grooved pin rest on its outer side. The sides of the frame are of rectangular section and the axis bar is offset. The plate has been folded around the axis bar; only one, rectangular, side survives intact, with a rivet hole on each corner, three of which retain parts of their copper-alloy rivets.Length: 34.9mm; width: 19.6mm; thickness (frame): 3.1mm; weight: 4g.This buckle is similar to examples found at Meols, Merseyside, which were dated to the late 13th/early 14th century (Egan in Griffiths et al. 2007: 89, Type 6).
