Description: | A copper alloy Iron Age La Tene III type brooch dating to AD 20-100. The brooch is in one piece. The foot of the bow is narrow (0.99mm) and then broadens out to a flat plate (6.59mm wide). The bow has two decorative vertical lines running down the edges of the wider part of the bow. At the top of the bow, the bow narrows sharply to create a wire which is wound round the top and then extends down the back of the brooch to form the pin. Cf Hattatt (1989) A Visual Catalogue of Richard Hattatt's Ancient Brooches p290 no 1452.
