Title
Brooch
Description
English: An incomplete copper-alloy ansate middle Anglo-Saxon brooch. This brooch is missing one terminal, due to an old break and has been flattened and folded in half.

  If straight the bow would measure c28mm in length, it is rectangular in shape and 11mm in width.  The complete terminal flares towards its tip slightly and measures 13mm in length and 11.6mm in width.  The front face of the bow is decorated with two parallel boarder rows of five worn ring and dot motif indentations.  There is also a central ring and dot motif just before both of the terminals.  The complete terminal is decorated with three parallel longitudinal pairs of ring and dot indentations.  The catchplate, spring and lug are missing.
This ansate brooch is similar in style and size to ansate brooches discovered at Hessett and Great Barton, Suffolk (see sf9377 and SF-E242D4 respectively).
