Description: | Early Medieval Anglo-Saxon small-long brooch fragment, head and top of bow only. Rectangular head-plate with raised square field at the top of the bow (the border above this is recessed, and the side borders are further recessed). Unclear if the head-plate was decorated, although there may be a punched ring and dot towards the upper right hand corner. Arched bow, carinated on front, flat on reverse, with faceted corners, and broken roughly half way down (after c.12mm). Single pierced lug, set longitudinally centrally at the base of the head plate, to take the missing spring & pin, with iron staining around. Length (incomplete) 30.71mm, width 31.09mm, thickness 10.08mm, weight 13.80g.
