Description: | Lower part of bow and footplate of Early Saxon small-long brooch. Flat D-sectioned bow ending in rectangular panel forming facets and decorated with a pair of transverse grooves and side notches. The footplate begins with a pair of transverse grooves above chamfered sides running down to a very simple half-round moulding. The base of the splayed terminal is marked by a ribbed moulding. Incomplete catchplate on reverse. The break across the bow is not ancient. Minor recent surface damage. The basal rib is a common feature, e.g. Leeds 1945, fig. 8 a and c. 6th century.
