Cast copper alloy two piece buckle of later post-medieval date (1660 - 1720). The frame of the buckle is sub-rectangular in plan (rectangular with rounded corners), and bowed in profile. The frame has been drilled to allow for a central iron axis bar through which the pin and strap-end would be fixed. The iron axis bar is missing has been lost – presumably through corrosion as large amounts of concreted orange (iron) corrosion is present on the frame close to the drilled holes. The frame of the buckle is decorated with a series of motifs. Either side of the drilled holes at the mid p…

A bent, corroded and incomplete copper-alloy buckle plate, probably originally from a single-loop buckle. Buckle plates with heraldic animal designs are thought to be a product of the 13th century AD. Similar examples (although clearly depicting lions) have been found in excavations in London (see G.

Only the upper plate remains, the rear plate having been broken off at the frame end, where there are two projecting tabs either side of a pin slot. The design, which occupies the entire…
