Description: | Copper alloy brooch, Colchester derivative rear hook type. Missing spring, pin, rear hook; damaged catchplate, foot and wings; patches of corrosion. The wings have a single(?) terminal groove and a band of three grooves, the intervening two ribs being notched to give a zig-zag effect, adjacent to the bow junction. The bow is oval in section, tapering, and has a centre band of four grooves with three intervening notched ribs. The catchplate has no signs of piercing but is recently damaged. Width 22mm, length 54mm. The style and decoration are similar to an eg from Ramsholt, Suffolk (RMS 011 no.157) but differs in profile under the bow/wing junction.
