Title
Early-medieval brooch: Brooch fragment
Description
English:

A fragment of an early medieval copper alloy brooch, probably part of a cruciform brooch or possibly a great square headed brooch, dating from the 6th century AD. The fragment is an irregular triangular shape, with old breaks on all edges. A lip on the upper part fo the fragment suggests a curved mid-bow section, as is seen on both brooch styles mentioned above. No decoration survives on the corroded surface. The reverse retains much of the large catchplate., which would have been located roughly halfway down the bow.
