An incomplete copper alloy buckle-plate component of probable Medieval to Post Medieval date (c. AD 1200 - 1600). The object shares similarities to the forked spacers of Medieval composite buckles (see Whitehead 1996: 36-7), upon which would have been attached sheet plates. This example, however, is rectangular in plan with the two prongs of the fork joined by a straight vertical bar just before they taper to slightly splayed out sharp points.
