Fragment of a Late Iron Age to Early Roman copper-alloy Birdlip Brooch of Mackreth’s (2011) type 4.1a or b. The trumpet-like head and the straight upper part of the bow are extant and joined at a slightly obtuse angle. Between them there is an expanded transverse disc, projecting forward, sideways and very slightly rearward. Immediately below this on the front of the bow is the characteristic turned-up beak. All parts are cast in one piece. There is no trace of the spring or pin. The trumpet head is sub-lozengiform in cross-section before it flares, with a well-defined arris run…

Fragment of a late Iron Age to early Roman enamelled copper-alloy object, probably a strap or harness mount or fitting. It is flat and rectangular and terminates in a worn transverse break at one end. The front is decorated with an abstract curvilinear design defined by moulded counter-relief cells, which retain traces of degraded red enamel. It is approximately symmetrical about the longitudinal axis and is tightly contained within a rectangular border on the three original edges.  The positive or relief element of the design is a single continuous form that can be des…

Iron Age to Roman copper-alloy Colchester brooch of Mackreth’s (2011) type C 6.d.d or C 6.d.e and similar to ibid. Pl. 26, No. 13160.

The wings are very small, rectangular in cross-section and undecorated. The complete one is now bent. The bow is slender, although wider than it is thick for most of its length. After an initial curvature at the head, it is almost straight. It tapers in width from the head and terminates in a point at the fo…

Bow brooch of most unusual form, now patinated dark brown with lighter, rusty coloured pits covering the surfaces, some of the broken and abraded edges are showing green. The head/pin mechanism is missing, leaving a sub-rectangular slight expansion just before the irregular break. The catch plate is set to the right-hand side when viewed from the front with the (missing) spring uppermost; this is of typical open topped form, with the trough for the pin slightly angled to accept the pin; it is now incomplete. The bow is of trapezoidal section and thickens towards the mid…

Fragment of an Iron Age to Roman copper-alloy terret. It is oval in cross-section, curved along its length (probably originally oval or circular) and terminating at both ends in a worn break. It expands very slightly in cross-sectional diameter from one end to the other. At the thicker end there is a triple-lipped moulding: three closely-spaced expanded disc-like ridges projecting outward and slightly laterally, diverging from each other at an acute angle. The central one is smaller and thinner than the flanking ones. An example of a similar and complete terret, albeit with only double…

Incomplete Late Iron Age to Roman copper-alloy brooch, probably a rosette type. It has an incomplete cylindrical spring case, now open at the top, with all edges being worn breaks, perhaps apart from the forward edge and a concave pin slot at the centre of the reverse. The bow is reasonably flat in cross-section. It arches in a C-shaped profile and probably tapers in width from top to bottom. The lateral edges are heavily abraded and no more than half of one edge is original. Decoration begins with a narrow transverse groove and ridge immediately below the spring case. Then …

Very small fragment of a Late Iron Age to Early Roman copper alloy terret with ancient breaks and distorted by heat, part of a round-sectioned ring, part of a round collar and the stump of a rectangular-sectioned bar. The complete object was certainly of the D-shaped ring and bar general type, but what remains is insufficient to enable a precise class to be suggested. It was most probably of the Simple class, i.e. the ring was undecorated and lacked excrescences (Lewis 2015, 87-9). Extant length 20.2mm. Weight 5.08g. 1st century BC - 1st century AD
