Description: | An incomplete cast copper alloy double-looped buckle of Post Medieval date (c.1550-1650 AD). The pin is missing. The frame is convex at the front and flat at the rear and has two identical oval loops. The bar is slightly narrowed, sub-triangular in cross-section (flat at the rear) and extends beyond the frame at each side to form small knops. At each outside edge of the frame there is a moulded rosette motif. There is no evidence on the outside edges for a pin rest. The frame has traces of a black substance. The buckle is 42.06 mm in length, 29.82 mm wide, 3.12 mm thick and weighs 8.7 grams. A similar buckle frame has been published by Ross Whitehead (Whitehead 1996: 66, ref: 407). This published buckle frame is dated c.1550- 1650 AD.
