Description: | Incomplete cast copper alloy Roman Hod Hill brooch, dating 40 to 70 AD. The head is rolled, with a central slot for the (now missing) pin. The bow is sub-rectangular in plan, and in profile it bends slightly towards the head. The bow has moulded decoration in the form of horizontal ridges, and there are side-knobs mid way down the length of the bow. The width of the bow decreases towards the foot, which is slightly bent forward. The catchplate is missing from the reverse of the foot. The brooch is 29mm long.
