A cast copper-alloy pin of Medieval date , with an oval loop at one end, which has become detached from an annular buckle. Similar buckle pins, with slight variations in the raised moulding, were found in archaeological excavations in London, in contexts dated c.1250-1400 (Egan and Pritchard 1991, pp.115-116, fig. 75, refs. 541, 547 and 549.) Similar buckle pins are recorded on the PAS database: see SUSS-2BB900, SUSS-329437, SOM-1D899E and SOM-29C460.

Incomplete, Medieval, copper alloy, buckle plate with traces of gilding, AD.1350-1500. The buckle plate is rectangular with five rivets that pass through both the upper plate and the lower plate. These plates are conected by the hinge loops as a single folded sheet of copper alloy. Around the rivets there is the remains of gilding that would have decorated the upper surface. The reverse plate is thinner than the upper and is connected via the rivets. The rivets are set with two at each end and one in the middle and are quite roughly positioned. This resembles no.522 from Egan and Prit…
