Description: | A Polden Hill style brooch which has been slightly bent out of shape, but except for the lower half of the pin the brooch is intact. The bow tapers almost to a point, the catch plate is of bow thickness, and has a triangular perforation. The chord passes through a perforated lug on the head. The centre of the bow is moulded with a wide central V groove with two raised rib mouldings on either side. The wings have volute mouldings flanked by two ribs on either side. The pin which is of copper-alloy, is broken off about half way down, the broken part is missing. | 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: | 50
