Medieval copper alloy single loop 'D' shaped buckle, dated to between c1250 and c1400 AD. The buckle is complete with pin and single folded plate.

A similar Horn Cap was discovered at Llyn Cerrig Bach on the island of Anglesey, famous sanctuary of the Druids. Other examples have have been found at Maiden Castle, Ham Hill and there have been a small cluster from the Thames Valley. This examp…
