A small cast copper-alloy single-looped buckle frame of medieval date (c. 14th century AD). The frame is oval with a lipped protrusion at its outer edge which would have acted as a pin rest. The pin bar is offset and narrowed; the pin is missing. Both surfaces of the frame are flat. The pin bar and lower surface are covered in file marks. The artefact now has a dark-grey patina with patches of off-white corrosion product. For this type see Griffiths et al. (2007, 88) where they are dated to the late 14th century.

An incomplete post-Medieval cast copper-alloy double-looped buckle (c. 1720-c. 1790 AD). Part of the iron chape survives and the pin is missing. The frame has moulded decoration at the front and is slightly convex at the rear. In plan, the frame is sub-rectangular. An iron spindle at the centre forms double loops. Each loop is sub-rectangular, is similar in size and has similar decoration. The outside of the frame is cusped and is formed of 'C'-shaped scroll-like features, two at each outer edge and two at each side (one either side of the spindle housing). The housing is in the for…

A cast copper-alloy double-looped buckle frame of medieval to early post-medieval date, incomplete in as much as it is missing its pin. The frame is formed of two conjoined ovals such that the sides incurve, the width of the two loops vary, the first has a width of 33.65mm in comparison to 32.05mm, the smaller loop has a recess to act as a pin rest. The frame has a oval cross section, the lower surface is mostly flat. The pin bar has a broadly triangular cross section. Buckles of this size with double oval frames have been found in late medieval contexts (cf. Egan and Pritchard 1991, …

An incomplete cast copper alloy Medieval or Post Medieval buckle, c. 1350-1650 AD. The remains of the buckle consists of a double loop oval buckle frame with a narrowed strap bar; the pin is missing, however a notch for the pin end to rest is visible on the frame. The outer edges of the loop are of uneven width and are bevelled. The frame is bent slightly, probably from deposition. The buckle frame measures 22.15 mm long, 15.54 mm wide at centre, 2.62 mm thick at centre and weighs 1.68 grams. The metal is bronze in colour, with a rough texture. For similar examples, cf.

Medieval or Post Medieval cast copper-alloy double-loop buckle frame. The frame has two oval loops. They are D-shaped in section with flat backs and a rounded front. The pin is missing but iron corrosion around the strap bar and covering half of one loop may suggest it was iron. It is 26.1mm long, 21.8mm wide and 1.8mm thick, 5.7mm including the iron; it weighs 3.13 grams. A similar example is illustrated in Margeson (1993:30, no.164) from a 17th century context although it is likely similar simple forms were in use by c.1350 (Egan and Pritchard 1993:22, 82-3, cf no.332).

A part of a Post Medieval Buckle dating from about 1660 - 1720 and made of copper alloy. It appears to have been a single looped buckle and most of the frame survives but only a tiny part of the bar. The breaks are exceedingly worn, so the possibility that it was a double looped buckle cannot be ruled out. The outer edge if convex and is decorated with a border of punched dots. The wide frame is decorated with punched lines forming leaf motifs, and depressed dots surrounded by rings. The designs contain surviving gilding. The sides of the frame are bi-concave, and there is a slig…
