Description: | Anglo-Saxon copper alloy small long brooch, 44.5mm long, 16mm wide and 2mm thick. The brooch weighs 10grams and has green patina with some pitting. The headplate of the brooch has a sub circular shape, partially due to damage and partially due to remnants of notches? It is decorated with two lines of small incised circles, one running horizontally and one vertically forming a cross. The brooch has a large bow beneath this, 20mm long, which is plain. Beneath the bow, about 10mm of the foot is present and is worn to a rounded terminal where it has broken off. There are two horizontal incised lines near the base. The reverse of this has the remains of a catchplate and the centre of the head plate has one central lug intact which is surrounded by iron corrosion.
