Description: | Iron Age. Copper alloy, cast, Upavon type probable equal ended brooch. The fat slug-like bow is highly arched but hollow below with the lower edges curved inwards more than usual. The head has either broken or corroded away leaving a small rusty stain from the iron pin. The foot with a recessed catch plate also curves back on itself with a circular terminal knop. Attractive dark green patina but some surface corrosion.
