Title |
Anglo-Saxon brooch |
||
Description |
English: Early Medieval copper alloy cruciform or small long brooch fragment, 36mm long, 29mm wide and 6mm thick. The brooch is in poor condition, with a green patina and weighs 8.24 grams. The fragment represents the head plate and part of the bow, but is very worn. The headplate was originally rectangular and divided into three sections vertically, with the central section raised slightly higher than the others. There are faint traces of possible punched decoration around this.
The bow is quite narrow and appears to be indented a few milimetres in, giving it a loose T shape. The whole of the back, which contains a single semi-circular lug, 10X5mm, is covered in iron staining and some has spread onto the front. |
