Description: | The central panel of a headplate from a Cruciform brooch with a half-round waisted top knob and an incomplete single pin lug and traces of an iron spring/pin on the reverse. In the centre there is a large moulded ring-and-dot. The dot contains white enamel inlay, and the less worn surface of the base of the shallower ring suggests it was probably also once inlaid. The breaks are ancient, though there is some more recent scuffing. Measures >31.5mm x >24mm. Late 5th - early 6th century.
