Description: | Copper alloy brooch, Colchester derivative double pierced lug type. Missing spring, pin, part of a wing; damaged lug, catchplate; corroded. The pierced lug is large, with 2.5mm diam. holes whereas the wings are narrow and almost flat with three vertical grooves. The bow is triangular in section with a small rib on each edge and a central groove. The surviving area of catchplate is solid. Length 42mm, surviving width 18mm. Similar to Stonea Fig.95 no. 32 except for the detail of the arm decoration; also the profile of the double lug with a slight forward projection is closer to an example from RAF Lakenheath (ERL 023 0033).
