Copper alloy Plate Brooch. Cast rectangular plate with a central drilled aperture of diameter 3.3mm. The aperture falls in the middle of an equal armed cross with very slightly flaring arms. The design comprises sunken fields, each arm being 2.1mm wide, each with a central cabled or billeted rib 1.2mm wide standing in relief. A sunken compartment circa 4mm square is set in each angle of the cross; two opposed compartments are empty, the other pair are filled by a ground of blue enamel with a central round field of white enamel and a central round dot of red enamel. It appears possible…

Copper alloy and iron brooch fragment. Cast trapezoid plate with a collared knop to either side of its wider end, the stub of an indeterminate feature loop above, and a flat lug on the back retaining the corroded stub of an iron pin or spring. The display face of the plate bears moulded vertical flutes converging towards its broken narrower end. Although a top loop and collared knops might usually denote a Roman brooch, the iron pin gear may suggest a later date. The form might alternatively ally this to the Continental series of Roman plate brooches. Suggested date: Unknown Roman to …

Lead alloy possible brooch fragment. Cast fragment from a flat plate with part of a relief design on its display face; three adjacent pellets of which one is larger than the others and a curved line above them with uncertain extensions and intersecting a cabled border. Patinated overall. This fragmentary motif might derive at its earliest, from a Viking-Age plate brooch displaying Christian symbols; or a cheap medieval brooch; or a pilgrim badge of an indeterminate cult centre - oriented as illustrated, the eye of faith might discern Christ hanging on the cross to be the subject. Sugg…

Unknown object of unknown age. Possibly a lead alloy buckle fragment. It consists of two coterminous fragments decorated with moulded tranverse ridges. There is also a possibility that it is related to brooch making. Combined measurements are length 37mm, width 42mm and weight 20.09g. First, this may be a trial piece or model of Roman date, or possibly a symbolic replacement for a brooch. The latter is occasionally encountered, though mainly in post-Roman (Anglo-Saxon) burial contexts. This may be a 19th century imitation of a Romano-British brooch form in an easily cast material, om…

Copper alloy annular brooch. Cast narrow band annular brooch with a band which is beaded on its display side and flat on the back, retaining a cast collared pin which is looped around the frame. Rust staining of the surface is prominent on the display side though the object was tested with a magnet to confirm its non-ferrous nature. The narrow band annular brooch is a feature of later, generally late 6th to 7th-century, Early Anglo-Saxon furnished burials of adult women, though objects of much the same form enjoyed a renewed popularity in the high medieval period. Suggested date: Unkn…

An incomplete gold disc, possibly a disc brooch or mount. This fragment weighs 3.33g but includes the weight of some adhering mud. No full diameter survives, however the radius measures 17.4mm which would suggest a diameter of 34.8mm if this was indeed a circular artefact. The edge is serrated, each projection having a width of c.1.6mm, some segments seem to be missing and others reduced in length or bent over suggesting partial damage to the edge. At the base of these a strand of wire forms a border on the upper surface. The wire has a width of 0.8mm. It is uncertain due to the adher…

Copper alloy plate brooch. Cast discoid plate retaining paired lugs for a probably iron spring and an opposed catch plate. Extensive rust on the back may arise from decay of the pin and may incorporate mineral preserved textile traces. The front bears the bordered relict of a curvilinear design in which a reflective spot of enamel appears. This could perhaps suggest a brooch of Weetch type 18, c. AD800-900, though earlier plate brooches include the use of enamel in more symmetrical arrangements. Suggested date: Unknown, Roman to Early Medieval, 100-1000 Diameter: 28.6mm, Thickness (pl…

Copper alloy brooch fragment. The lower part of a bow brooch with a concavo-convex mid-bow, with moulded borders or stops above and below, constricted lower bow with expanded square plate at its end. Most of a folded catch plate projects from behind the lower bow. Probably from a small cruciform or small long brooch, though its poor condition and some accompanying material might permit this to come from a late Roman brooch of uncertain form - the knee brooch series is perhaps the most likely candidate. Suggested date: Unknown, late Roman to Early Medieval, 200-600 Length: 29.8mm, Widt…
