Object type: SPOON
Broad period: POST MEDIEVAL
County: Oxfordshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
An incomplete copper alloy stem of a probable spoon of post-medieval date. The stem is flat in section and tapers from a wedge shaped end towards what may be the junction with the bowl. The stem is decorated on one side with linear scores down the outer edges, and an indistinct floral pattern at the wide end. Both sides of the stem have been silvered, which suggests a later date and possible function. Probably 18th or 19th century AD.

Object type: BUCKLE
Broad period: MEDIEVAL
County: Oxfordshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A complete copper alloy single looped buckle and plate dating to the medieval period. The buckle is D-shaped in plan and has indeterminate scrolled moulding either side of the pin rest.

Object type: STRAP FITTING
Broad period: MEDIEVAL
County: Oxfordshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
An incomplete cast copper-alloy strap loop frame dating to the medieval period. The strap loop would have been trapezoidal in plan, with a wider outer frame edge decorated with two small projecting knops at its outer corners, with a third larger knop in the centre, which is what remains here. There would have been two triangular prongs inside the loop which would have helped stay the strap. One side arm of the frame is partially retained. For a discussion on these types of strap loops, see Egan and Pritchard 1991, p. 231-233; cf. Ibid Fig. 149, no. 1263. c. AD 1150-1400.
