Broad period: IRON AGE
County: Norfolk
Workflow stage: Published
Fragment of a Late Iron Age to Early Roman rectangular-sectioned iron linch pin engaged with a copper alloy hoof-shaped foot terminal. The front of the hoof is imperfectly circular, its sides being flattened by wear thus interrupting an encircling moulded groove. For the cause of such wear see Spratling 1972, 59 and fig. 41. The main part of the front of the hoof is recessed and at its centre a round cell is filled with red enamel and lies within a spiral of very finely engraved lines forming two three-sided fields filled with pecked dots. On one side between t…

A pair of Iron Age tweezers. It appears to be complete except for some loss of edge and pitted loss of surface around the tips of the arms and the connecting loop. It is formed of a single strip of metal folded in half, perhaps around a rod, to create a closed circular loop. The loop has then been hammered flat on a plane perpendicular to that of the arms. The arms are parallel-sided and the tips appear to be rounded. The original shape of the tips is partially obscured by abrasion and loss of edge and surface. However, parts of the side edges at the tips appear to …

Incomplete Iron Age la Tene 1 style brooch. The head is broken where it coils (leftwards as viewed from the front) to the first loop of the spring and pin. The bow is oval in cross-section with a medial depression in the front face. It expands in width to the high point then tapers down again to the foot. The foot continues on to form a right hand side catchplate and then turns back on itself, expanding into a pierced circular disc which finishes in a collared hoof shaped terminal, just short of the bow. Circa 400 to 300 BC

Copper alloy Iron Age to Roman penannular brooch of Fowler/Booth type C. The brooch is made from oval cross-section wire formed into a circle, with a tapering oval-scrolled coil at both free ends. The void at the centre of one of the coils is filled with what could be orange enamel, which is now very powdery. There is no trace of a similar material in the second coil. The tapering wire pin is bent and has been made flat where it wraps around the frame. The sharp end reaches beyond the opposite frame to enable it to be turned around the frame for fastening. No other decoration can be s…
