Description: | An incomplete square headed small long or cruciform brooch, the head has no knobs and the head plate is square rather than trapezoidal, the bow carinated on the obverse and a high arch being almost a reverse C shape in profile. There does not appear to be any distinction between the flat panel and lappets which are rounded. The brooch is broken off just below the lappets and the foot is missing. The break appears to be old, there is no evidence of burning. The reverse has some metal corrosion products including a patch of iron corrosion at the stump of the pin bar lug, there is a small part of the catchplate extant. | 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: | 550
