Description: | A copper-alloy fragment of a probable Roman bow brooch, a part of what appears to be th upper bow survives and the rest is missing due to old breaks. The fragment tapers at one end and has a D-shaped section, there are traces of worn longitudinal grooves and the wider end appears to be flaring into a cylindrical spring case. This brooch is therefore perhaps most likely to be a Langton Down type, although too litle survives to be sure. It measures 16.15mm in suriving length and 10.45mm in width. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Minter, Faye - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
