Description: | Knob from an Early Medieval cruciform brooch of Aberg's Group II-IV. The knob has a flat-backed, D shaped section with a perforation down its length. This contains traces of the iron pin that secured the spring. It appears that the knob was hollow-backed and now full of rust. Across the flat end of the knob is a square sectioned groove which would have engaged with the head plate of the brooch. Around the knob is a deep groove flanked by incised, circumferencial lines, two around the straight section of the knob and one around its rounded end. . Length 13.3mm, Width 12.0mm, Thickness 7.7mm, Mass 4.19g.
