Description: | The head of an Anglo Saxon cruciform brooch dating to the period c. AD 450 to 600.The headplate is sub rectangular with collared knops projecting from the top and left. There would have been a third collared knop projecting from the right side of the rectangular plate however this has broken off. The curved bow projects downwards from the rectangular plate but this is also broken and so the foot of the brooch is missing. The pin is missing however the integral lug which it would have been attached to is still in place and corroded. A more complete cruciform brooch has been recorded on the PAS database, see YORYM-C33D41.
