Cast copper alloy belt fitting, Post Medieval in date. It has been mis-cast and so the loop is mis-shapen. The body of the fitting ends in a pointed terminal. There is a raised line, then a rounded middle section, with a raised line above it before the body meets the loop. The body is concave and hollow on the reverse. It has three circular holes, one near the terminal and two on the middle section, these would have been to attach the fitting to the clothing or belt. The loop is mis-shapen, and has a smaller circular loop at what would have been the top.

The central motif appears to be either a corn ear or another plant. The inscription reads 'S'INCH....' So it is a person seal, unfortunately not enough of the legend can be made out to work out who owned it. On the reverse, near to the top is a small rounded loop, now filled with mud.
