Description: | Fragment of a cast copper alloy cruciform brooch of Early Medieval/Anglo-Saxon date, c.410-600. The fragment is from the lower part or foot of the brooch and consists of a rectangular plate with moulded decoration on the obverse. The decoration shows two geometric sub-square panels followed by a raised band of linear grooves. The plate then continues into the initial stages of a zoomorphic head with two curved grooves representing the stylised eyes. The brooch is broken at this point and the subsequent continuing snout is missing. No image of reverse. Find recorded from image supplied by North West MDC. Unfortunately no measurements recorded by club.
