Description: | A fragment of a cast copper alloy Trumpet brooch of Roman date. All that survives of the brooch is the acanthus decoration and short lengths of the upper and lower bow. The upper bow is circular in section and the break is very worn. There are collars above and below the moulding. From the reverse of the lower bow the beginning of the catchplate can be seen. The metal is a light brownish-green colour and is worn. Similar brooches can be seen in Hattatt, p327 c.f.
