Description: | A copper alloy Roman Polden Hill Bow Brooch measuring 28.08 mm long, 15.34 mm wide, 11.53 mm thick and weighing 5.81grams.The brooch is similar in appearance to Hattatt fig. 159 no. 24.The brooch is fragmentary and only the right side of the spring cover and bow remain. The right side of the spring-cover, catch-plate, and pin are absent.The bow is ovular in section and tapers to form a V-Shape. The bow is also twisted at the foot, giving it a skewed appearance. The bow is undecorated. However, the spring-cover has linear moulded ridges on each side of the bow head. The bow head itself rises over the spring-cover and forms a slightly sub-knobular shape-making it more similar in this case to brooches of Dolphin type.
