Description: | Cast copper alloy single-loop sub-rectangular buckle frame with expanded, splayed feet and a narrowed and recessed strap bar. The outer edge of the frame has a trefoil moulding of three pointed projections alternating with pairs of ridged collars on either side. The pin is missing but there is a groove in the central projection which would have been used as the pin rest. The frame has moulded raised rectangular panels on either side and expands outwards slightly to form a curved outer edge at each end of the strap bar, and then tapers to a pointed knop at the terminal. There are patches of tinning surviving on the underside of the outer edge and in a few of the ridges on the upper face.Whitehead (1996) illustrates similar buckles on pages 28-9, nos.153-155, which are dated from c.1500-1650.
