Description: | Fragment of what appears to be an Anglo-Saxon brooch, perhaps a cruciform or small long type, dating to the 6th century AD. The fragment has a flat face though all edges are damaged. The reverse contains a damaged catchplate; iron corrosion survives to one side of this, presumably representing the pin. The object is pitted and covered with soot, suggesting that it has been in a fire. The breaks are old and rough.
