Description: | An incomplete cast copper alloy T-shape brooch of early Roman date. The brooch measures 27.6mm by 28mm by 3.6mm and weighs 5.4g. The cylindrical wings contain the axis bar for the missing hinged pin. They are decorated with two parallel circumferential incised lines at each end, although one edge is slightly damaged. The bow has a D-shaped cross-section. It narrows towards the missing foot. The front of the bow is decorated with two longitudinal ridges which border a central incised linear. These converge part way down the bow and form a raised downwards-pointing triangle with two transverse incised lines at the top. There are traces of tinning or silvering on the front.
