Description: | A cast copper-alloy small-long brooch of Anglo-Saxon manufacture, dating c. 450-600.The brooch is incomplete, consisting of the bow and head only. The bow is carinated, with notched corners where it meets the head. The head has been damaged along all edges and no longer retains its orginal shape, which was probably rectangular, though is presently closer to a heart-shape. The damage to the edges of the headplate is abraded. The outer face of the head also does not retain any decoration. In the centre of the reverse of the head is an incomplete lug.
