Description: | Possibly a large fragment of a Roman Wirral type brooch dating from the early Roman period, that is c. AD43-200. Only the bow and head remain, most of the pin rest, foot and pin are missing. The surface of the brooch is very worn and no trace of enamel or moulded decoration remains. The general shape and outline suggests a humped rectangular cross-section and a rounded head. The spring mechanism was hinged.
