Description: | Part of the foot of an early Anglo-Saxon cruciform brooch, 42mm in length and 21mm in width. The fragment begins with the lower half of the flat panel which has longditudinal boaders of cresent-shaped indentations, beneath this is the half-round panel which is fairly flat and has one deep transverse groove with a transverse ridge either side of it. Below this there is the top of the horse-head terminal, the eyes are projecting spikes, and are circular in cross-section, inbetween them runs a longditudinal ridge. The nostrils are missing as is the rest of the terminal due to an old break. On the back face the catch plate is present. | 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: | 410
