Description: | An incomplete Romano-British headstud brooch. The end of the foot is broken off, but the top of the foot is present with the remains of the cathplate on the underside. The brooch widens out from foot to head plate with an incised border along each edge and very square sides. Underneath the bow the brooch is hollow. The headstud itself is a separate piece riveted onto the bow, and is dome-shaped (8mm in diameter) with radial fluting. The head has square wings on either side, and had an enclosed spring mechanism with a slot for the pin which is now missing. At the top of the head is a projecting panel with the remnants of a loop. | 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: | 100
