Medieval copper-alloy buckle frame, circular internally and with the bar straight externally. The outer edge has a slight point at the grooved pin rest. This is of Meols Type 3 (Griffiths et al 2007, 84-86), a very simple shape with surprisingly few well-dated examples known, but probably in use from the 13th to the 15th centuries.
