Description: | The brooch has a horizontal oval shaped bow head. The reverse of the bow head is concave forming a void within which the spring was situated, but is missing now. To hold the spring in place there are two vertical lugs at either end of the bow head. Along the top edge of the bow head is a sub-rectangular vertical protrusion which has horizontal incised lines as decoration. This protrusion is incomplete. The bow is semi-circular in section and at approximately the centre has expanded horizontal moulding. The bow is incomplete and the catchplate is not visible. The bow is position off-centre to the bow head. | Format: | text/html | License: | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/ | Publisher: | The Portable Antiquities Scheme | Rights holder: | The Portable Antiquities Scheme | Subjects: | archaeology | Temporal: | 43
