Object type: BOW BROOCH
Broad period: IRON AGE
County: Kent

Iron Age La Tene III brooch. The brooch is formed of a single piece of copper alloy, twisted to form a bilateral spring with internal chord. The brooch is complete, with both the pin and catchplate surviving in good condition. The bow is arched, with the foot stepped back slightly. A triangular catchplate extends down the entire length of the reverse of the foot. The original record descriped the bow as "?parallel sided", presumably meaning that the bow was rectangular in plan. The brooch is approximately 57mm long.
