Description: | A Roman copper alloy penannular brooch with circular cross-section. The terminal ends are folded over with a decorative moulding of reels or ridge and groove. The original penannular shape is now distorted, probably through post depositional damage. Directly above one terminal the frame is split, again this is most likely post depositional. The pin is still present and comprises a strip of copper alloy which is wrapped around the frame of the brooch for attachment. The tip of the pin is possibly missing. The date range spans the Roman occupation; viz circa 43-410 AD. Dimensions: diameter 2.60mm; weight 5.09g
