Hattatt illustrates three examples of this type (nos. 1328, 1424 and 1424A), all said to be Norfolk finds. One good parallel was found in East Walton parish (HER 29273) in 2005. Part of another was excavated at St Nicholas Street, Thetford (HER 1134, EAA 87 (1999) fig.36 no.7). This form of ansate brooch is the most common type recorded in Norfolk. Length 41mm, width 6mm. 8th - 9th century.
