Title
Early Medieval brooch fragment
Description
English: Early medieval copper alloy brooch fragment, 21mm long, 20mm wide and 7mm thick. The object is in fair condition and weighs 3.21grams. The brooch is sub triangular in form and rectangular in section with a protruding, corroded pin attachment. Its surface has many damaged areas but it has two clear intact edges which a crescentic in form and whose alignment give the object a T shape. Its surface is decorated with dot and ring decoration, four are visible also aligned in a T shape. The reverse holds the corroded remains of a pin attachment, but it is too damaged to say what form this takes.

The object is probably the trefoil shaped head of a small long brooch similar to Hattatt 677, fig 235.
