Description: | An incomplete and slightly corroded copper-alloy toggle of late Iron Age date. There has been little study of this category of artefact, but several similar pieces are known from southern Britain (see, for example, R. Jackson, 1990, p. 40). The object is symmetrical in form. The central part consists of a horizontal bar of circular section, with a slight swelling at the centre. At each end is a terminal of inverted conical form. Extending upwards from the central part are two protrusions - part of the broken loop attachment.The toggle measures 21.9mm long, 11.4mm high and 8.9mm thick. The weight is 5.55g.
