Description: | A copper alloy annular brooch dating to the Medieval period. The brooch has a rectangular sectioned frame, with a collet at one side, that may have once held coloured glass or a stone, while the opposite side has a sub-rectangular projection. The whole upper surface of the brooch is decorated with moulded diagonal and linear scores. There is a recesed bar for the pin (now missing). Similar buckle are recorded on this database (for example, LIN-60B517) and in Egan (1991) p254 no.1335. This latter example, excavated from Swan Lane, Upper Thames Street, London and was recovered from a secure context dating from c. AD 1270-1350.
