Description: | An incomplete and bent Medieval (1250-1450) copper alloy sheet buckle plate. The plate would have folded around the strap bar of a buckle to form a front and back plate, however this object is broken at the fold so only one plate remains. This plate has then been bent back on itself along a straight line. Unbent, the plate would have been sub-rectangular, having straight edges apart from at the fold which is recessed for the pin and frame. There are five rivet holes for missing rivets: two large at the attachment end and at the centre of the plate (diameter c.3.5mm) and two smaller (c.1.8mm) at the frame end, one of which is open due to damage.The plate now measures 27.1mm to the fold, although would originally have been c.42mm long. It is 21.2mm wide and the sheet is 0.6mm thick. It weighs 3.10g.
