Description: | a copper alloy Medieval probable brooch fragment. It is a curved plate with openwork decoration of four holes set in a square pattern within an enclosing circle. There are two adjacent patterns, only one of which is complete. The fragment is likely to be one of four such lobes repeated around an openwork centre. There are no traces of a pin or fixing for one on the underside of the object. It measures 19.21mm in length and 10.69mm in width, weighing 1.53g. No parallel has been seen, but it could be part of an annular brooch.
