Description: | Cast copper alloy knee brooch from the mid 2nd/mid 3rd century. The head is semi-circular (though broken) and behind this is an enclosure for the spring/pin (now missing). The bow is D-shaped in section and curves out into the 'knee'. This curves back and narrows, then widens slightly at the foot of the brooch. The only trace of the catchplate is a ridge running vertically along the foot.
