Description: | A foot fragment of a copper-alloy early Anglo-Saxon long brooch, either a cruciform or a small-long brooch. Only a lower fragment of the bow, the flat panel and the half round panel now survive; the rest of the brooch is missing due to old breaks. The bow is faceted and the flat panel has small rounded lappets. The half round panel has transverse mouldings across it. On the back face there is the remains of the catch plate.This fragment measures 28.6mm in length and c10mm in width across the bow and 19.5mm in width across the lappets of the flat panel. From its width it probably should be identified as a cruciform brooch.
