Description: | An incomplete copper alloy medieval buckle plate, dating to the period c. AD 1350-1400. The buckle plate is broadly rectangular in plan, but tapers slightly towards one terminal. It splits into two at its wider terminal, and the gap between the two split edges would have accommodated the pin. The split edges curve backwards slightly before terminating in worn breaks. An aperture is situated off centre close to the edge of the narrower terminal, which would have accommodated the rivet. Both the front and reverse are undecorated, and there is a green patina on the surface.The buckle plate measures 27.70mm in width, 11.45mm in length, 0.73mm in thickness and weighs 0.82g.Cf. Egan and Pritchard (1991) p. 111, fig. 72, no. 511.
