Description: | Copper alloy penannular brooch fragment. Half only, missing pin and bent next to the break. The ring is of rectangular section (2.2 by 1.2mm) with the terminal coiled back. The front face has notches on the outer edge and an incised zigzag. Original diameter about 21mm. Similar to an example from Oakley, Suffolk (OKY 005 85206) in size and with notched edges (both edges), and another larger one from Kelvedon (Rodwell 1987, 60 no.32) from a 4th century grave; and for one with heavier incised zigzags see Colchester (Crummy 1983, 18 no. 102). These decorated, rectangular section examles of type C are usually 4th century.
