An incomplete copper-alloy double-loop buckle, dating to the period c.1600-1700. The object is composed of the buckle frame, missing its pin. There is iron staining on the central pin bar suggesting that the pin was originally iron. The buckle has a pointed oval appearance, with a pin rest upon each 'point' of the oval; this is in the form of a bulbous knop. Radiating from the pin bar, along the frame, are incised lines. The reverse of the buckle is undecorated.

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.

A fragment of a copper-alloy double-loop buckle, dating to the period c.1650-1800. The object comprises a piece of the buckle frame, decorated on its upper surface. The decoration is two opposed foliate terminals upon either side of a central transverse ridge with collared borders on either side. There is a small projecting knop approximately 10mm from the central design upon both sides. There are also three raised ridges on the frame, just before one of the breaks; these would presumably have been mirrored on the now-lost parts of the frame. Length: 39.71mm Width: 6.79mm Thickne…

An incomplete post-medieval, copper-alloy buckle plate, dating to the period c.1500-1700. The buckle plate is rectangular in plan and would originally have been a single sheet folded over to hold the buckle hinge in place. There are three rivets that pierce the plates, a single one in the centre of the plate and two at the opposite end to the buckle itself. Between the two plates are the remains of some leather, probably from the strap it was attached to. The buckle end of the plate has been shaped into two projections at the fold of the plate to accommodate the buckle frame and the p…
