Description: | A worn complete cast copper-alloy disc brooch of probable Anglo-Saxon date, circular in shape measuring c37.4mm in diameter. The brooch is flat and c2.8mm in thickness, its edges are very worn and may have been bevalled originally. The front face is decorated with an incised cross motif formed of two bands, each consisting two pairs of parallel lines, which cross over in roughly the centre of the brooch. On the back face there is an integral pierced pin loop and catch plate. The pin does not survive, perhaps as it was iron.
