Description: | A medieval copper-alloy brooch. "Turreted" type ring brooch probably dating from about AD 1250-1300. The ring measures 20mm in diameter and has six equally spaced bosses around its upper surface. These contain the corroded remnants of white paste settings. The panels in between these bosses are each decorated with three incised dots within an indented vertical line border. A narrower section between two of the bosses represents the pin rest. The pin is missing but would originally have been wrapped around the frame. The reverse is plain. It weighs 1.85g. | 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: | 1250
