Title
Drawing of an Hines Group XIX square headed BROOCH
Description
English: Most of foot and stub of bow from a square-headed brooch of Hines's Group XIX. Too little of the bow survives to be certain as to its form or decoration; the break here seems slightly more recent than the breaks elsewhere. The footplate upper borders are extended into lappets, one long and round-ended and the other worn or broken to a stub; there is no trace of decoration on either. The side lobes are also worn, and are now roughly rectangular with downward projections on their lower corners. The terminal lobe, which by comparison with other brooches in this group should have flared to a rectangle, is largely missing, and the break here is very worn. The foot is decorated with a double lozengiform groove, and there are hints of a third outer groove which is now very worn. On the reverse, slightly off-centre, is a catchplate which is now evenly worn down to a rectangular stub. Behind this, cutting through the outer groove, is a circular hole 3 mm in diameter filled with iron, perhaps the remains of a rivet from a repair, although it is hard to see what function the repair would have had. The closest parallel in Hines's corpus is from Lakenheath (Hattatt 1982, no. 182), although the Freckenham example is much simpler and less highly decorated. Early Anglo-Saxon, 6th century AD.
