Description: | An incomplete cast copper alloy annular brooch, dating to the 13th/ 14th century AD (diameter of brooch frame: 29.5mm; thickness of frame: 3mm; weight: 4.1g).The brooch frame is annular in plan and D-shaped in section. The frame is undecorated and there is a small constriction/ recess (width: 3mm) along the frame, which would have originally held the pin (now missing) in place. Overall, the brooch is in a worn but fair condition with a patchy brown patina.A similar example is illustrated in Egan, G & Pritchard, F, 2002, 'Medieval Finds from Excavations in London: 3: Dress Accessories c. 1150 - c. 1450', pages 248-9, ref no 1307.
