Title
Modern Harness Buckle
Description
English: A cast copper alloy harness fitting of post-medieval to modern date (c. AD 1800 - c. AD 1900). Length 44mm, width 69.5mm and 5.0mm thick. Weight 37.43g.

Of the type often known as a 'breeching dee', it is cast in one piece but consists of three distinct elements, a 'D'-shaped loop, a central rectangular opening and a long bar. The curving part of the D-shaped element is sub-circular in cross-section and the remaining parts are rectangular in cross-section. The artefact is slightly worn but in a fair condition and has a well developed even mid-green patina overall. Similar buckles are recorded on the Portable Antiquities Scheme database.
