Description: | Fragment of a copper alloy brooch, Colchester derivative / Polden Hill related type. Top of bow and arms only, damaged at ends - however the surviving area is relatively uncorroded with a white metal surface on the front. The spring was held by a rear hook and folded over arm terminals, all of which are damaged. The arms have moulded terminals. The upper bow has a flat back and sides, with a rounded top, and two centre grooves bordered by concave mouldings on the slightly convex face. Surviving width 25mm, length 16mm. Very similar to Scole (Rogerson 1977) no.1, p129-130; other examples known from Wenhaston, Whitton, ?Barham. | Publisher: | http://finds.org.uk | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Identifier: | http://finds.org.uk/database/artefacts/r... | Go to resource |
