Description: | Cast copper alloy fragment of a cruciform long brooch (Hattatt). The object is not particularly decorative and also corroded. The item is formed of a sub-circular plate with a square base-plate at the centre. This part of the fragment is rectangular in section, with the exception of of a highly corroded nodule in the middle of the reverse of the plate, perhaps representative of the pin. Below the sub-circular plate is a head knob (D-shaped in section) which forms a right angle to the plate, though the reverse is flush, having been cast as one piece. The knob has been cast with a band which tapers just above the middle, after which it widens slightly and tapers to a soft point.The plate measures 29.96mm wide; the head knob is 10.58mm wide and 13.98mm long.
