Description: | An incomplete and distorted copper alloy Roman Polden Hill variant brooch, dating to the first or second century AD. The brooch is missing its spring and pin and is now bent towards the bottom of the bow. The wings are intact and are set behind a small rectangular decorative plate located at the head of the brooch. The bow is raised through this panel, forming the only 'decoration'. The panel extends approximately half-way down the length of the bow. The catchplate is complete and has an circular hole through it. Polden Hill type brooches date from c. AD 75-175.
