Description: | An incomplete copper alloy buckle of Post-Medieval date circa AD 1660-1720. The buckle is a sub-annular shoe or knee buckle with a drilled frame for a separate spindle. Only the D-sectioned frame remains which is undecorated, the spindle is missing. The frame has an uneven mid to dark green patina and it is possible that the buckle was once tinned. A similar example is illustrated in Whitehead, (1996 p.97) no.600 and is dated to circaAD 1660 - 1720. There are also parallels on the PAS database, discovered at Saxton with Scarthingwell, North Yorkshire (YORYM-8F0895) and Cotton Edmunds, Cheshire West and Chester (LVPL-D53536). The buckle measures 30.1mm long, 23.3mm wide, is 1.9mm thick and weighs 5.1 grams.Whitehead, R. (2003)Buckles 1250 - 1800. Witham, Greenlight Publishing.
