Title

Description
English: Anglo-Saxon cruciform brooch, the central panel and wings survive as does the top knob and one side knob, the rest of the brooch is missing due to old breaks, now worn. The edges of the brooch are distorted and it appears to have been burnt and therefore may be evidence of a cremation cemetery.

The head measures 36.38mm in width and 26.17mm in surviving length. The central panel is rectangular and raised and has longitudinal borders of small crescent shaped indentations. The top knob and side knob are integral and not detachable. They are half round.
