Object type: BUCKLE
Broad period: POST MEDIEVAL
County: Somerset
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
An incomplete Post-Medieval buckle plate, probably dating to c. AD 1500-1650. The surviving portion consists of the front plate only. The plate is very broadly piriform in plan, with a rounded base, which narrows into a waisted section before expanding into a trilobed terminal. From the attachment end of the plate two parallel arms extend, originally wrapping around the bar of the buckle and connecting the two halves of the plate, although they are now broken at the fold. The plate is perforated by two rivet holes, both on the longitudinal median line and retaining an iron rivet in …

The candle stick is circular in cross section, terminating in a worn break at one end and likely hollow throughout, with openings at both the break and base, although it is now blocked. The stick expands in cross section into a flaring collar shortly below the break, as well as flaring outwards into the base, from which expands a narrowed, short circular shaft.

A Medieval copper alloy buckle with integral forked spacer, probably dating to c. AD 1300-1450. The buckle frame has a single oval loop, with a D-shaped cross section. The outer edge of the loop is expanded into a small point, with two prongs expanding from the opposite edge. A simple wire pin is wrapped around the frame in the space between the prongs. The composite plate survives in situ, consisting of two rectangular sheets of copper alloy soldered onto the spacer. These are notched at the attachment end to create three distinct lobes, but are oherwise undecorated; a central separa…

County: Dorset
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation

A similar buckle was excavated in Norwich in a context dated to AD 1561-1690 (Margeson 1993: 29, no. 157), however, they are often assumed to be earlier based on their decoration, cf. PUBLIC-655D05, HAMP-AD9215.

Object type: STRAP END
Broad period: MEDIEVAL
County: Dorset
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A Medieval copper alloy two-piece strap end, probably dating to c. AD 1200-1450. The strap end is tongue shaped in plan, terminating in a squat knop and made of two sheets of copper alloy with the backplate at the terminal end only; the two plates are held together by a crudely punched, seperately made copper alloy rivet. The frontplate is decorated with a pattern of engraved zigzags ('rocker-arm') in a herring bone arrangement. The strapend appears to be broken at the attachment end. That the rivet is punched through the decoration would suggest that it was not original.

Object type: TOKEN
Broad period: POST MEDIEVAL
County: Kent
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A Post-Medieval Lead uniface token of Powell type 2, probably dating to c. AD 1500-1850. The token is circular in plan and flat, with the initials I.P in relief on one face; the other is plain.
Dimensions: diameter 17.0mm; thickness 2.9mm; weight 5.65g.
Lead tokens had a wide variety of uses and were made locally; they are therefore hard to date precisely and could be Medieval or Post Medieval in date. However, tokens depicting initials are typically assumed to be of Post-Medieval date.
