Description |
English:
An incomplete copper-alloy early Anglo-Saxon small long brooch with the head and bow surviving and the rest of the brooch missing due to old breaks now worn. It measures 38.7mm in surviving length. The head plate is cruciform with T-shaped arms, it measures 18mm in length and 21.6mm in width. Each of the T-shaped arms has a pair of parallel transverse grooves across it. The bow is facted and has a parallel pair of transverse grooves at its top and base. On the reverse of the head plate there is a complete central pin loop with corroded iron in around it, presumably the remains of an iron pin.
This small long brooch is similar in form to a more elaborate example from Haslingfield, Cambs (McGregor and Bolick 1993, 139, no 15.56). |
