Title
Early-Medieval (Anglo-Saxon) Silver-gilt Great Square-headed Brooch (fragment). Treasure case 2015 T374
Description
English: A fragment of an Early-Medieval (Anglo-Saxon) silver-gilt great square-headed brooch (c. 410-c. 650). Treasure case 2015 T374.

This foot-plate fragment is part the inner foot-plate panel with a central lozenge shaped cell that contains a lozenge. Part of the curving footplate inner panel has zigzag edges. The rear face is flat and has the remains of a catch-plate.

The front is slightly worn and the breaks are old.

14.3mm (height); 12.1mm (width); 1.1mm (thickness); 5.5mm (thickness including catch-plate). Weight: 1.12g.

The design is very similar to the foot-plate inner panels on a trio of brooches from Grave 45, Chessell Down, Isle of Wight (Arnold 1982: fig. 12) as well as the foot-plate inner panel on a brooch from Lakenheath, Suffolk (Hines 1997: plate 32, Group IX).

Compare with 2014 T811 (addenda to 2003 T208).
