An incomplete Medieval cast copper-alloy double-looped annular buckle frame (c. 1400-c. 1500 AD). The frame is convex at the front and flat at the rear. It is divided centrally by a narrowed bar creating two loops. Each loop is 'D'-shaped in plan and similar in size. There is no indication of a pin-rest. There are two oblique trapezoid projections on one outside edge. These are convex at the front and flat at the rear. The central bar is narrowed and 'D'-shaped in cross-section, flat at the rear. The pin is missing. This buckle has a mid-green patina overall. There is iron staining…

An interesting buckle plate consisting of 4 parts: 1. The principal part of the plate is formed by a strip of copper alloy bent in two with a gap at the fold, like that on a modern hairpin, to receive the buckle frame and pin (now both missing). Three tectangular notches have been cut into the folded edge; a central pin slot to locate the pin and a further two frame recesses cut into the corners to receive the buckle frame. The front of the plate is openwork with nine holes cut into it in three rows. The row nearest the fold consists of three circles, then in the centre is a row of…

An incomplete cast copper alloy Post Medieval hat buckle, dating between 1720-1800. It was a square buckle with rounded corners in plan and D shape in section; however, it is broken and only portions of two arms survive. The longer arm expands at the centre and tapers at the corners, where there is a single notch. There is a complex curvilinear design moulded into the buckle, which meets in the centre of the longer arm. The buckle is in good condition, albeit broken with old breaks. It has been tinned, all of which survives. It measures 31.17 mm L x 12.56 mm W x 2.56 mm TH and w…

A broken and incomplete cast copper-alloy post-medieval double-looped buckle frame. The frame is formed of a pair of oval loops with moulded decoration on their edges. There is an expanded, sub-triangular moulding at each end of the pin bar. This is decorated on the upper surface by three incised lines, the central straight, the others angled. There is a similar moulding on the extant outer edge, slightly larger. This pin bar is trapezoidal in cross-section. Around it the basic pin survives in situ bent upwards at its tip. One of the loops has broken directly at the pin bar moulding…

A corroded 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 frame is bevelled both internally and externally on the upper surface, the latter more shallowly; the lower surface is flat. The pin bar thus has a trapezoidal, almost triangular cross-section. Small traces of dark brown corrosion product on the pin bar suggest that it might have been made of iron. The buckle frame has corroded to a dark red-brown colour with a dustin…

An incomplete, fragment of a Medieval, cast, copper alloy, single loop oval buckle with ornate outer edge. This broken buckle probably had a narrowed offset strap bar which is now missing. The outer edge has two lobed knops flanking a constriction for a sheet copper alloy roller, also missing as is the tongue. Although broken there is an attractive dark grey/ green patina. This buckle fragment is likely to date to 1250-1400. Ref. Buckles 1250-1800, Ross Whitehead, Greenlight Publishing 1996, page 23 no. 105. This buckle is 31.24mm long, 15.60mm wide, 4.03mm thick and weighs 2.9g.

A corroded cast copper-alloy double-looped buckle frame of post-medieval date, incomplete in so far as it is missing its pin. The frame is formed two loops: one oval, the other with an angled outer edge. On one half of the rounded loop a straight projection implies that the buckle had not been filed down. The pin bar extends beyond the loops in knops of trapezoidal cross-section. The buckle is crudely bevelled internally and externally on the upper surface; the lower surface is flat. The buckle has some mid-green and grey covering over a red-brown metal. One can see that the buckle h…

A complete single-looped cast copper-alloy buckle probably of early-medieval date. The frame is of simple, oval form with a circular cross-section. The inner edge around which the pin is looped is flattened. The thick wire pin survives well with minimal pitting. The frame is retained within a simple, short plate formed of a folded rectangular sheet. This features a slot for the pin and a pair of rivet holes at the attachment end. The plate has broken at the strips either side of the pin. The lower half of the fold is abraded at one of these strips and one of the rivet holes. Two …
