Description: | Fragment of a single loop buckle with an ornate outer edge surviving of what was probably an oval frame with a narrowed and offset strap bar. The curved frame that is ovate in section has two moulded lentoid knops flanking a sheet copper alloy roller with engraved transverse grooves. The roller no longer moves around this recessed section of the frame, but would have originally done so and allowed the pin to rest on it. The pin, the rest of the buckle frame and the plate that would have attached to the buckle and to a strap are all missing.Whitehead (1996) illustrates a similar buckles on pages 23, no.105, which is dated from c.1250-1400.
