Description: | An elaborate copper-alloy T-shaped brooch dating to the early Roman period. The brooch has rectangular wing faces with a cylindrical wing cover behind. The pin is missing. Above is an incomplete suspension loop. The bow is shallowly arched, T-shaped in plan and D-shaped in cross-section. The top of the bow is decorated with a moulded oval panel containing a central rope-like line. The lower bow is decorated with a rectangular panel containing a row of four lozenges in reserve metal. The surrounding cells would have contained enamel though only a degraded brown-coloured paste remains. The foot is reeled. The catchplate is intact.
