Copper alloy penannular brooch of Fowler type C and dated to the 1st century BC – 1st century AD. The brooch is formed of a band of copper-alloy, of oval cross section, which has been bent round into a broad, open oval shape. The band does not meet and the terminals at either end of the band are formed by flattening the metal and rolling it up on itself. The pin is still present and is formed of a single flat piece of copper alloy, curled around the band of the brooch at one end and shaped to a rough point at the other end, where it rests on the opposite side of the brooch.

Copper alloy miniature shield. The shield is flat, hexagonal with curved sides in plan, and has a raised circular boss in the centre. There is no surface decoration or any sign of a grip on the reverse of the boss. The shield is in a good state of preservation and has not been damaged or mutilated in any obvious way before deposition. Miniature shields are difficult to date however they are thought to range from circa 400BC to the mid-late 1st century AD.

Incomplete copper alloy miniature shield. The shield is flat, hexagonal in plan, and has a large decorative boss in the centre. The boss consists of two concentric raised circles, with perhaps a raised pellet in the centre. The outer circle is thicker than the inner. There is no sign of a grip on the reverse of the boss.

Incomplete copper alloy miniature shield. The shield is flat, oval in plan, and has a raised circular boss in the centre. The shield is decorated with a perimeter of raised pellets that may either be imitating studs or the heads of rivets that attached full-sized bronze shields to a wooden backing. There is a circular hole at the top of the shield which may have allowed the object to have been part of a toilet set. The shield is in a fair state of preservation despite being in two pieces. Both ends are folded over and the perimeter of the sides is badly damaged. Miniatu…

Incomplete copper alloy miniature shield. The shield is flat, hexagonal in plan with oval sides, and decorated around the perimeter with raised 'torc-like' motifs. Each torc is a raised crescent with a raised pellet terminal. Approximately half of the shield is missing. The missing part is longitudinal.

Incomplete copper alloy miniature shield. The shield is flat, diamond shaped in plan with oval tips, and undecorated. The shield is in a good state of preservation. Part of the perimeter is damaged at the lower right hand side, and the lower right hand quarter of the shield is bent slightly forwards.

There is a small circular hole in the centre at the top of the shield that may have once allowed it to be attached to a ring as…

Incomplete copper alloy miniature shield. The shield is flat and decorated although now in a very poor state of preservation. Both tips are missing and one damaged end is bent over onto the reverse.

There are four further lines of raised pellets radiating diagonally out from the boss. There are perhaps four rivet holes around the perimeter, although since the perimeter is so abraded and damaged it is diff…

Incomplete copper alloy miniature shield. The shield is flat, hexagonal in plan and decorated. The boss is depicted by a raised band enclosing a dome in the centre. This same decoration is also repeated twice above and three times below. The tips of the shield are missing and it is likely that there was once another motif above thus making three on either side. There is a concave rib running around the perimeter of the shield that may have either enabled binding to have been attached to it as noted in some full-sized shields, or perhaps the rib represents the binding.
