Description: | A incomplete copper alloy probably La Tene III type brooch dating to BC 100 - AD 100. The brooch is missing the pin and catchplate. At the top, the brooch comprises the remnants of curl of metal that originally comprised the top of the pin. The top then expands to a long triangular shape, the bottom of the point is missing. The front of the brooch is decorated with two double diagonal lines, creating a saltire with a space in the centre. Cf Hattatt (1989) A Visual Catalogue of Richard Hattatt's Ancient Brooches p 290 no 736.
