Description: | Roman copper alloy Polden Hill variant brooch, 44mm long, 27mm wide and 10mm thick. The brooch is in fair condition with a green patina and weighs 7.81 grams. The brooch has open semi-circular sectioned wings with pierced end plates. The spring is missing but the chord remains, attached to the top of the bow with an integral loop. The wings are decorated with a vertical incised line near each end. The bow is sub circular in section and sits slightly proud of the wings. It is decorated with two incised lines running from either side of the upper loop, these presumably merge at some point on the bow. The catchplate is missing but would have been 18mm long. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Scott, Wendy - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
