Description: | Early Medieval copper alloy brooch fragment, 27mm long, 12mm wide and 4mm thick. The object is in poor condition, being very worn, with a green patina and weighs 3.69 grams. The fragment is sub rectangular in form and has a semi-circular section. It consists of part of the bow of a brooch and has the remains of a catchplate running down the centre of its reverse. The front has two distinct areas of decoration, the lower part is made up of five horizontal raised ridges and its upper part has a chamferred surface. It matches very closely with the corresponding part of brooch 1300 in Hattatt's Ancient Brooches. | 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: | 600
