Description: | Copper alloy brooch, Colchester derivative rear hook type. Missing spring, pin, and catchplate; damaged wing and areas of hearvy corrosion. The wings have a concave moulding. The upper bow is a broad flat strip, slightly convex with longitudinal mouldings at the front, consisiting of a central convex moulding and broad concave mouldings each side with flanking narrow ribs. Below the mid point the bow narrows sharply to a convex face with no decoration which tapers to a point - the foot may be incomplete. Surviving width 19mm, length 32.5mm. Similar, though with differences in the layout of the mouldings, to an example from Gosbeck, Suffolk. | 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: | 43
