Copper alloy brooch. Disc brooch. A plain cast disc with the stubs of a hinged pin lug and a folded U-shaped catch-plate. The front is entirely plain except for a single ring and dot of diameter 3mm close to the edge. It may be that a Roman brooch or back plate has been reused; however, the plate is slightly larger than the simpler forms of disc brooch illustrated by Mackreth (2011), so an imitation of the form may rather explain this piece. However, it is conventionally believed that Anglo-Saxon brooches were usually provided with iron pins, and there is no sign of iron staining on t…

Copper alloy and Iron, painted or oiled
Late Roman Crossbow Brooch fragment. Cast onion knop surmounting a deep collar with billeted edges. Beyond the collar the object acquires an oval section with two oval projections, presumably the start of a series. Two prongs of iron wire of thickness 1.3mm are bedded in the core of this stem. Erica Darch kindly identifies this as a part of a Crossbow Brooch, a type associated with the later Roman military; in this correcting an identification as a knife pommel. She cites SF-A65EF0 as a similar fragment and SUR-56D6F6 as a complete example.…
