Description: | Roman (mid first to second centuries) Colchester-derivative brooch: The lower portion of the copper alloy bow remains, which is oval in section. The bow is broken at the upper edge, and this is not a too recent break. The bow tapers towards a bulbous foot which protrudes forwards slightly. On the reverse of the bow there is a complete, solid catchplate. The surface of the brooch has a mottled light grey/green coloured patina. The brooch measures 27.03mm long and 3.05mm wide across the break and weighs 2.02g.The type of brooch is uncertain, but probably dates to the mid first to second centuries.
