Description: | Cast copper alloy brooch dating to the Medieval period. The brooch is circular in plan; it is possible that it was a penannular brooch or has otherwise been broken. There are four low conical (turret-shaped) decorations on the face of the brooch; these have concavities at the top for taking settings, now missing. The object has a dark brown patina. The pin was found with the brooch, but not attached to it. The pin is cast, square in section, with a collar. The pin measures 36.1mm in length, 4.3mm width, 4.9mm thickness and 3.45g weight. Measurements listed below are for the brooch.
