Object type: BUCKLE
Broad period: POST MEDIEVAL
County: Cheshire East
Workflow stage: Published
Post-medieval copper-alloy double-looped asymmetrical buckle frame, perhaps from a shoe, with white-metal coating. One loop is rectangular, the other D-shaped internally and with a pointed outer edge. The central bar appears to have been of iron and survives, although very corroded. There is a good parallel in Whitehead (2003, no. 598), also with an iron bar and white-metal coating; Whitehead dates this example to c. 1660-c. 1720. These buckles are usually small, and this one measures 26.37 x 21.61mm. It is 4.46mm thick and weighs 5g.

Cast lead-alloy weight, probably a spindle whorl dating from the medieval period, that is c. AD1200-1500. The weight is circular, with a large perforation in the centre that held the spindle. The surface is very worn. Unlike many other spindle whorls of the same date range, this example has a very distinct moulded decoration: There are five moulded flat knops on the outside of the whorl with incised (probably also moulded) lines between each two knops. Lead weights like these are common finds, but only rarely from excavated contexts which is why date and origin are difficult to pin…

Record ID: NLM-A5E1D3
Object type: METAL WORKING DEBRIS
Broad period: MEDIEVAL
County: Lincolnshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Copper alloy metalworking debris. Fragment of copper alloy with a bubbled surface on one side and possibly with flow lines on the other. One 'end' is dished, and this, together with a possibly ridged section of the object, might suggest this to be the remains of a cauldron leg detached and melted down during an episode of recycling. This identification would suggest a Medieval date for this activity. Suggested date: possibly Medieval, 1200-1500. Height: 43mm, Width: 35mm, Thickness: 25mm, Weight: 83.68gms
