Description: | Copper alloy Brooch fragment. Fragment from a small cast Small Long Brooch, from the mid bow to the foot, and retaining a folded catch plate behind the lower bow. A curved mid bow of flat D section is set above a plain and slightly tapered lower bow, a collar of two slightly expanded mouldings, and an elongated spatulate foot. This is one of a number of finds suggesting that Early Anglo-Saxon graves have been disturbed by cultivation hereabouts. Dr Kevin Leahy kindly identified this object, distinguishing it from a cruciform brooch. Suggested date: Early Medieval, 500-600.Length: 43.5mm, Width: 7.4mm, Thickness (at curve of bow): 2.2mm, Weight: 4.14gms.
