Description: | An incomplete copper alloy bow brooch of Roman date. All that remains is the head, which is formed of tubular wings and a small portion of the circular sectioned upper bow. The remains of a pin can be seen projecting from the centre of the reverse of the head. The metal has a mid-green patina and is worn. The brooch is 11.8mm long, 13.3mm wide, 4.6mm thick and weighs 2g.An insufficient amount of the brooch survives to allow it to be allocated to a specific type though it is likely to be part of a Trumpet or Headstud variety of late 1st - 2nd century date.
