Description: | Early Anglo-Saxon small-long brooch, probably of Leeds' cross potent type. The side & upper edges of the head-plate are all missing (recent damage) so it remains possible that this was a trefoil-headed type. However partially surviving straight rows of part-annulet stamped impressions, which would almost certainly have followed the original edges, suggest that a cross potent form. A pseudo head panel, demarcated on three sides by lines of similar stamped impressions, has a central circular perforation. Plain D-section bow. Lower foot missing (recent damage). Single pin bar lug on reverse within mass of iron corrosion from pin/spring. 6th cent. | 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: | 500
