had a update from the museum tonight on the buckle they said:-
Quote
The buckle is difficult to closely parallel and the decoration on both faces may be seen as unusual.The style and form of the buckle may suggest a date in the early medieval period.
End Quote.
still more research needed to id nothing like this to compare it to, so i wait and hope.

They don't know either then Ian, at the moment you must consider that as a unique find, there are no parallels so they ain't gonna find anything at the moment. Can only think that it is a piece that has been designed for a specific purpose and in some ways it is quite crude!
A lovely find which you may never be able to tie down, a bit arts and craftsy for the period so made locally I would guess.
