Description: | Treasure ref: 2012 T294. A silver gilt annular brooch, broken and decorated with four symmetrically placed globular projections. Each of these has circular punch-marks creating the impression of clusters. The frame also contains three lozenge shaped flower-heads (the fourth is missing) equally spaced around the frame. One of these is situated above the pin loop. The frame has been gilded. Late 13th or early 14th century.A comparable brooch from Stirton, North Yorkshire (Treasure Annual Report 2003, number 158, 2003 T197) has a frame decorated with globular projections and petal mounts, and so it is likely that the missing mounts on the Addlethorpe brooch were of similar form to that found on the pin. The main shank of the pin is missing. For another comparable example see the Treasure Annual Report 2001, number 88 (2001 T25).
