It has an angled protruding acorn knop at the corner where the shafts connect. The overall condition is good with an even green patina. A similar handle has been found in archaeological excavations at Victoria Street (Baynard Castle Dock) in London. That example was tentati…

Broad period: POST MEDIEVAL
County: Wiltshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A post-medieval cast copper-alloy asymmetrical double-looped buckle, complete with pin and chape. The buckle frame has one rectangular and one D-shaped loop. A simple sheet copper-alloy pin is retained at the pin bar by the chape. The frame features transverse notches at the centre of the outer edges of both loops that would have acted as pin rests. The chape is formed of a single piece of metal folded over on itself, the upper fold narrowed and curved round to form a hooked terminal. The frame is curved in profile, perhaps as a result of wear. This may be a spur buckle, its chap…
