Description: | Small brooch of Hod Hill type dating to the Early Roman period. It is complete except for the foot, catch plate and pin which are missing. Part of the spring is still in place it its protective tube, but the central pin is missing and the spring thus no longer tight and mis-shapen. The bow and part of the head were decorated with moulded decoration, i.e. deep vertical grooves and a small crest on top of the brooch's bow. Also, there are two small knops on the lower part of the bow, one on either side of the bow. The lower part of the bow is decorated with horizontal grooves, which were also moulded.
