Description: | Copper alloy brooch, Hod Hill type with side projections in centre of upper bow. Missing pin, one projection, damaged foot; heavily corroded and cleaned. The upper bow has a pair of transverse ribs separated by a concave moulding above a plain curved front panel from which the projections spring; the surviving one of these has three ribs across it. The lower bow has another pair of ribs flanking a concave moulding above a flat straight-sided leg. Width 14mm, length 45mm. Broadly similar to Riha 1979 nos 892, 893 (both of these have a footknob, which is a possibility on this eg).
