Description: | Incomplete cast copper alloy sub-annular shoe or knee buckle with a drilled frame for a separate spindle. The frame has ten conjoined circular convex roundels and the two largest are above each of the spindle holes which retain the ends of the iron spindle, now mainly missing. The sheet chape that would have attached to the spindle is also missing. The base of the frame is internally bevelled at quite at angle and also slightly externally bevelled at a shallow angle. Much of the surface of the frame retains its layer of tinning, and there is some iron oxide on the roundels around the spindle holes.Whitehead (1996) illustrates a similar buckle on page 97, no.603, which is dated from c.1660-1720.
