Description: | Cast copper alloy foot of an Anglo-Saxon cruciform brooch of Aberg Group II or III, with a zoomorphic horsehead terminal. The length is 39mm, and the width is 15mm. It dates from between c450 AD and c600 AD. The PAS database has other Aberg Group II and III brooches, but none with that closely match this one. There are a number of records that have a similar zoomorphic horsehead as a part of their design.
