Description: | A fragment of a copper-alloy Langton Down type brooch, dating from the Late Iron Age to Early Roman periods.The head of the brooch comprises a cylindrical casing, which is now squashed and contains a small portion of its original spring. The pin, which is also missing, would have projected from a slit at the centre of the spring casing. In comparison to other brooches of this type, the bow is narrow and of thin, flat section. Only a short length of the bow survives, the remainder having been lost in antiquity.Dimensions: 13.3mm long, 23.1mm wide. Weight: 2.7g.
