Title
Early Medieval Equal Armed Brooch
Description
English: Copper alloy and iron cast ansate brooch. It comprises a line of three equal-armed crosses, each with a central pellet and with a pellet in the angle between each pair of cross arms. The central part stands proud of the rest as a bow. The end segments retain twin lugs with a scrap of iron between them as relict of the pin at one end, and the stub of a longitudinal catch plate at the other. Chipped at one end, so that one cross-arm is missing from the foot. Length: 41.9mm, Height (of bow): 7.4mm, Width: 14.9mm, Weight: 8.03g.

Weetch dates this type to the 8th or 9th century (2013, 156-7).
