Description: | A fragment of a copper-alloy Hod Hill brooch of Roman (1st century) date. The head is missing from the top of the bow so there is no cylindrical axis bar or pin. The wide part of the bow is rectangular, its upper surface decorated by three vertical ridges, separated by deep, wide grooves. One side lug has been broken off by an old break. Part of the foot remains but is very worn; part of the catch plate visible on the reverse. A similar example can be seen in Hattat's visual catalog, page 322.The fragment is 20.3mm long, 21.7mm wide, 3.1mm thick and weighs 2.94 grams.
