Description: | Copper alloy brooch of Polden Hill type. The bow is now bent to one side at an angle of about 30 degrees. It is decorated with two longitudinal lines down its length between which run small transverse lines. The wings are plain and are hollowed underneath to accomodate the coiled spring. At each end of the hollow is a small perforated plate that retained the chord running through the coiled spring. The spring, pin and catch plate are missing although part of the spring threaded through a hole in the head plate survives. | Subjects: | Polden Hil type | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Leahy, Kevin - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
