Description: | Small copper alloy bow brooch with slightly humped-over head with trace of rearward facing hook. Short wings, spring gear and pin missing. The bow is rectangular in section and tapers to a knob foot. The front face is decorated with a median rouleted ridge with groove to either side. Catchplate much denuded but extends two-thirds of of bow. This brooch is probably a Polden Hill type variant based on common characteristsics such as the shape of the head and the rearward hook to hold the chord of the spring. | 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: | 75
