Description: | Copper alloy brooch Langton Down type. Missing pin, parts of spring and cover, catchplate; very corroded; bow bent. Most decoration is lost from the spring cover. The head of the bow is rounded. Only traces survive of the reeding on the bow front. The catchplate stubs show that it was open in the centre. Surviving width 15.5mm, surviving length 36mm. This is probably a small, particularly rather narrow example of a Langton Down even allowing for the effects of corrosion. | 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: | 25
