Description: | A fragment of a cast copper alloy T-Shape brooch of Roman date. The surviving portion measures 37.3mm by 30.2mm by 4.4mm and weighs 7.4g. The cylindrical wings conceal the axis bar for the hinged pin, almost all of which is missing. They are undecorated with the exception of a pair of circumferential parallel lines at each end. The bow has a D-shaped cross-section. The front of the upper bow is decorated with two protruding sub-circular knops. Above the upper knop, on the crest of the bow, there is an incised X. The bow narrows into a plain foot, on the back of which is a triangular curving catchplate.
