Description: | A cast, copper alloy, penannular brooch which is slightly misshapen. It is 30.4mm long, 26.6mm wide and 8.8mm thick. It weighs 4.62gm. It is badly corroded, making it impossible to classify, but penannular brooches were used from c.300 BC - 500 AD. This example is most likely to be Roman in date. The terminals are thicker than the rest of the frame. The pin is missing. The brooch has a rough red patina.
