Description: | Part of a copper alloy Early Anglo-Saxon cruciform brooch, incomplete due to old breaks. It is the foot of the brooch, with a horse-head terminal, and is 30.58mm in length. It is rectangular and is 10.60mm in width at the incomplete terminal and 7.17mm at the horse's muzzle terminal. It weighs 3.38g. The surfaces are worn and the features of the horse head are indistinct. The broken edge appears to be an old break. A similar terminal on a cruciform brooch from Lakenheath is illustrated in West 1998, fig 105, no.12.
