A fragment from a cast gilded copper-alloy cast saucer brooch of early Anglo-Saxon date, dating from circa AD 450 to 550. The remains of the brooch show that the front surface was decorated with a moulded 'running spirals' design. Some of the gilding has abraded away, exposing a black surface. Elsewhere patches of green copper corrosion are visible. On the reverse the remains of the broken hinge for the pin, or possibly the catchplate, are visible. The brooch fragment measures 23.64 mm long, 17.07 mm wide, 1.89 mm thick and weighs 2.2 grams.

A cast copper-alloy Roman disc brooch. It is missing part of its outer edges, pin, outer edge of the catchplate and some of the enamelling due to old breaks. The brooch is flat, circular in form with enamelled decoration on the front face of the plate. This comprises a central circular field containing four sub-triangular fields at the compass points with smaller sub-triangular fields between these, all filled with blue enamel. Central to these are two concentric circles, the inner being enamleed, the outer not. All this decoration is surrounded by a border. The outer edge has a solid knop at the bottom and may have had loops at the top and on bothe sides. The one at the top is missing, on the right side are the splayed ends of another and the one on the left is missing completely. The loop on the right may have always been splayed but could be this shape due to post-depositional damage. On the back of the plate is an integrally cast double lug that is pierced by a separately cast transverse axis bar. At the bottom of the plate is an integrally cast catchplate. This is sub-triangular and bent and broken due to post-depositional damage. It measures 31.32mm in diameter, 2.76mm in thickness and weighs 12.81g.

Cast copper-alloy trumpet brooch dating from the early Roman period, that is c. AD75-175. The brooch is incomplete and very worn with pin, pin rest and spring missing. It look as if the spring and pin had been made from iron: there is iron residue around the axis bar. Maybe the axis bar itself was made from iron. The internal axis bar loop and brooch boy were made from cast copper alloy with a trumpet-shaped head covering the axis bar and spring and a curved body which is decorated with moulded decoration. Even though very worn it is still identifiable: the middle of the bow was decorated with the trumpet brooches' typical reel-and-acanthus-leaf decoration and some additional circular mouldings. It does not look as if there was any additional enamel or moulded decoration on the head.

The upper section of a crossbow variant of Roman copper alloy bow brooches; measuring 27.81mm in length, 24.11mm in width, 6.17mm in depth, and weighing 3.57g. The brooch is similar to 101 of fig. 227 in A Visual Catalogue of Richard Hattatt's Ancient Brooches.
The bow of the brooch is rectangular in section and relatively plain. The three 'arms' of the brooch are also rectangular, but end with circular protrusions separated from the rest of the 'arm' by a raised collar followed by an indented band at the base of the circular protrusions.
The reverse of this brooch has a circular hole beneath the convergence of the 'arms'. There are no remains of the pin.

A Roman copper-alloy plate brooch.
The plate is crescentic, its upper surface decorated with three bands of sub-triangular cells, a few of which retain traces of dark blue insets. The convex upper side is scalloped and there is an incomplete chain-loop at the apex. On the reverse, the positions of the hinge and catchplate indicate that the pin would have been aligned on the longest axis of the brooch. The hinge consists of two right-angled lugs, between which is the remaining pin loop. The catchplate is formed of a single right-angled lug, its top rolled over.
Dimensions: 29.7mm long, 21.4mm high, 1.4mm thick (plate). Weight: 6.44g.
Although crescentic plate brooches were produced in the mid 1st century AD (see Bayley and Butcher 2004: 155), the presence of enamelled cells and chain-loop on this brooch indicate a probable 2nd to mid 3rd century date (cf. Hattatt 2000: Fig. 214, no. 1134; Fig. 215, nos. 605 and 1420).

An unusual copper alloy Roman brooch. It is a bow brooch, but very short, and has mouldings which are suggestive of both fly brooches and phallic symbols. It may be a trumpet headed variety, but the head is very thick and rounded, and is not a clear trumpet mouth. The head is decorated with an arched line which divides the plain area above from a stippled area below. There is a transverse concave groove across the top of the bow, and the rest of the bow is decorated with curved lines which are far apart at the top, and close together at the base. The area between the lines is stippled and the outer areas are plain. These lines have the appearance of insect wings folded over the fly's body. The foot is bulbous. This makes it look a little like a phallus. The bow is a rounded rectangle in section. Behind the foot is a wide projecting tab which was presumably the catchplate, though no catch survives. The edges are rounded and worn making it impossible to tell if there are breaks. Behind the head is a tubular housing holding an iron axis bar and the hinge part of an iron pin. The rest of the pin does not survive. A close parallel for this unusual small brooch has not yet been found, but the similarity to both fly brooches and phallic brooches suggest a second century date.

A Roman, copper alloy disc plate brooch; measuring 6.92mm in depth, and weighing 4.04g. The brooch appears to be similar to 118 in fig. 203 of Hattatt's 'A Visual Catalogue of Richard Hattatt's Ancient Brooches'.
The brooch is circular with a distinct rim around its edge and a hexagonal star-shaped design at its centre. This star encompasses a central raised circle, and includes the addition of circular protrusions at each of its six points. Also evident at the points of the star are small dots of residual red enamel. The colour of the brooch between the points of the star alternates between black and dark-green.
The reverse of the brooch also has a dark-green patina, alongside evidence of iron staining. The catchplate and lug are largely intact, but the pin is missing.

Copper alloy brooch, length 71mm, width 39mm, thickness 18mm, weight 22.5g. This is made form a thick (2mm thick) rectangular strip of copper alloy that has been cut and hammered into shape. To form the mount for the spring a slot has been cut down the middle of the top edge (head) of the strip by approximately 20mm, the resulting arms have been bent out, to form a T-shape. Inserted over each arm is the spring of the bow, this consists if two blocks of five curls joined by and external cord, the pin is still complete. The foot of the bow has been filed into a point, a thin sheet if copper alloy has been soldered onto the left side and bent back to form a catch plate. The bow has been distorted through later damage but may have originally had a high arch.
There are no known parallels for this type of brooch, which makes dating extremely problematic. Slotting the spring over a bar mounted at the head of the brooch is seen on La Tene I and II type brooches, but not in later periods. However, the configuration of the foot section and style of the bow are considerably different to these middle Iron Age examples and are arguably more reminiscent of early roman styles. Because this brooch is unique, its dating is difficult, but the closest parallels appear in the styles of the 1st and 2nd century AD.

Cast copper alloy gilded oval brooch dating to the late Roman period, i.e. the 3rd and 4th centuries AD. The object is oval in plan and both obverse and reverse are extremely worn. On the reverse, none of the spring or hinge housing, pin or pin rest survive, while, on the obverse, almost none of the enamel, glass setting or goldwork remain. The brooch was composed of one central raised glass intaglio or a glass or gemstone which is surrounded by two moulded ovals with punch-decorated gold inlay on the raised ridges. The goldwork was decorated with X- and zigzag punches.
The type is discussed by Bayley & Butcher, 2004, in 'Roman Brooches in Britain: A Technological and Typological Study based on the Richborough Collection' pp 178-9). Bayley & Butcher date this type of brooch to the third if not the fourth century, and probably manufactured in Britain since few are known from the Continent (Ibid.). Bayley and Butcher also state that the use of mercury gilding necessitated the low-lead alloys on these brooches. It is likely that this brooch dates from circa AD200 to circa AD 350. Similar examples which can be found on the database are WMID-997A92, LVPL-6719D3, LIN-0CFB37 and LANCUM-98C056.

An incomplete late Iron Age to early Roman brooch of Langton Down type, c. 1st century AD. The head, crossbar, bow and fragment of catchplate are present. Some of the spring is also present within the cylindrical wings. The head looks as though it has a punched dot decoration creating at least two triangles just above where the head joins the bow and two incised horizontal decorative lines just above that. The bow rises gently from the head and then falls straight down to where the foot is cut inwards at either side before the bow ends. The bow has a double vertical raised rib running vertically down its centre. The dotted incised decoration continues vertically at either side of the central raised ribs in a spiralling design following the length of the brooch. The remains of the perforated catchplate points in a downwards 'V' shape' and is slightly bent to one side. The brooch is of an overall deep green patina. Cf. Bayley and Butcher, p. 65 no. 72.

An incomplete cast copper-alloy Roman Developed T-Shaped Brooch, dated to c. 65-160 AD. The crossbar, head, head lug and part of the brooch body are present. Although the spring is missing, a small corroded fragment remaining at the end of one of the crossbar arms indicates that the spring was probably composed of iron. The spring hood appears to have curved around the spring in a half-cylindrical manner and a portion of the lug on top of the head suggests that a portion of the spring chord passed through it. The head lug is part of a small serrated rib running down the centre of th head, which terminates at the 90-degree angle in the brooch body at the neck. The body has two recessed cells running vertically along its length and one bears the remains of inlaid red enamel suggesting that both cells were inlaid with the material. An old break running horizontally across the brooch body occurs about halfway down. The lower half, including the foot and catchplate are missing in addition to the spring and pin above. The metal is of an even medium-green patina. For a similar example, cf. Bayley and Butcher 2004, p166.

Part of a cast copper alloy, Anglo Saxon, cruciform or small-long brooch dating from AD400-600. It consists of the bow and that part of the foot holding the catch plate. Both the upper and lower portions of the brooch have broken away in antiquity and are missing. Above the bow are two narrow, transverse grooves beneath a shallow semicircle of four inverted crescents. The bow itself is decorated with three lateral grooves running down the centre, bordered by punched crescents. Beneath the bow are two transverse grooves separated by a ridge marked with small, punched rectangles. There is then a flat section, on the reverse of which is the catch plate. This flat section has a central, transverse ride with a row of crescents above and a row of punched rectangles below. Finally there are two sets of three ridges separated by a wider, transverse groove. The middle ridge of the upper three is marked with a row of raised dots. The brooch has a dark green patina. It is 42.5mm long, 16mm wide and 18.7mm thick. It weighs 17.39gm.
