About MeComplete iron buckle excavated at Castle of Wardhouse, Aberdeenshire in 1988. This double-looped buckle has an iron pin. The form of the loop resembles that of 14th-century looped buckles with forked attachments.

There are recessed pin-rests on both loops. The buckle probably dates to the 14th or 15th centuries.
