Title: Re: found today Post by: Neil on February 28, 2016, 06:24:29 PM Sorry, but looks to be one side of a broken shoe buckle. The hole is where a iron pin would have transversely the buckle.
Still a nice find. Cheers Neil Title: Re: found today Post by: jammiedigger on February 28, 2016, 06:50:49 PM Thanks both the patterns are symmetrical but the end has broken on one side i measured it at 5cm. If complete it would have been 6 cm.
