Title
Brooch
Description
English: A copper-alloy ansate (caterpillar) middle Anglo-Saxon brooch, measuring 46mm in total length and 13mm in width. The bow is roughly rectangular in plan with slightly flaring terminals, the centre of the bow is arched and narrower than the terminals being 10mm in width as opposed to c13mm in width. The front face of this brooch is decorated with pairs of transverse grooves occurring across either terminal, at the point where the sides arch upwards and across the arched centre of the bow.
On the back face of the terminals there are traces of corroded iron and interestingly a silvery grey solder. This is all that survives of the original iron pin and its attachment devices.
