Title
A Medieval lead tin alloy buckle plate dating to the early 15th century.
Description
English: A Medieval incomplete lead tin alloy buckle plate dating to the early 15th century. This buckle plate is hollow and has been cast with the frame which is broken and missing. The iron pin which articular around an iron cross bar is still present. The buckle plate is decorated on the front surface with a cast pattern comprising a circular motif set on a cross-hatched background with a row of pellets along one edge, adjacent to the pin. There are two rivet holes, one in the front of the plate and one in the back of the plate which align. The hollow plate is filled with post deposition concretion.

Egan & Pritchard (1991:102) describe this class of buckle plate and identify it as early 15th century in date.

Dimensions: length: 33.41mm; width: 15.58mm; thickness: 4.56mm; weight: 5.79g.
