Title
an Early Medieval cruciform or small long brooch
Description
English: Part of a cast, copper alloy Anglo-Saxon brooch of small long type, dating from AD400-600. It consists of an arched bow and a small, flat, head plate with three equidistantly spaced arms which taper to blunt, rounded points, possible zoomorphic but too worn to be sure. On the underside of the head plate are the remains of a vertical pin loop. The pin and the foot of the brooch are both missing, having broken away in antiquity. The brooch is quite corroded and no decoration is visible. It has a rough, patchy light green patina. It is 33.1mm long, 20.7mm wide and 11mm thick. It weighs 7.47gm. Compare number 15.82 on page 146 of MacGregor and Bolick (1993).
