Description: | An incomplete copper alloy crossbow brooch dating to the period c. AD 265 to 350.The head of the brooch is now missing but the curved bow is still in place as is most of the foot. The bow is D-shaped in section and flattens and hollows to create the foot with integral pin catch. There is a narrow area between the bow and the foot, creating a collar. A similar object is recorded in Bayley and Butcher (2004: 110), catalogue number 288.
