Description: | A medieval, cast copper-alloy single loop buckle with a decorative, integral plate. The buckle has an oval frame with a flattened lip. The pin is intact and is cast copper-alloy with a single, raised, transverse ridge below the loop. The integral buckle plate is triangular in form, and tapers from the buckle frame and terminates in a double, circular moulding, one moulding containing a copper-alloy rivet. There is a second rivet hole drilled in the plate next to the pin hole. This was probably a spur buckle and dates to the medieval period, c. AD 1250-1400. Similar examples can be seen in Whitehead, 2003 on pages 32-35.
