Description
English: A fragment of a Hod Hill type of Roman copper alloy bow brooch; measuring 20.22mm in length, 9.39mm in width, 2.69mm in depth, and weighing 1.19g.

All that remains of this brooch is the uppermost, right-hand part. This consists of a sub-rectangular extension angled out to the right, atop a curved length of the upper plate of the brooch.

The reverse of this fragment bears a few incised lines but no obvious evidence of the pinning mechanism itself.
