Early medieval brooch; Incomplete cast copper alloy disc brooch of probable 9th century date. The brooch is formed of a flat, circular plate cast with a design with roundels and indications of interlace. The artefact consists of two fragments of the plate which fit together, one of which seems more worn than the other. Unfortunately the back of the fragments cannot be closely examined due to the adhesive which has been used to hold them together, but there is no indication that any of the pin or pin mounting survives. From the existing fragment it can be postulated that the original…

Incomplete copper alloy small long brooch. The brooch has a rectangular headplate decorated with punched crescent and dot motifs.

There is a pair of incised chevrons decorating the bow at the top and the bottom, just in from the facets. There are two small square plates below the bow. The lower one is faceted. …

Possible fantail foot from an Anglo-Saxon small long brooch. The brooch foot is flat, triangular and broken at the top. There is no decoration on the surface and no catchplate on the reverse. The absence of a catchplate makes this more likely to be Anglo-Saxon, since Roman bow and fantail brooches have catchplates on the reverse of the fantail.

Two fragments of what was probably the same Anglo-Saxon copper alloy annular brooch. The fragments are flat and circular. One is very worn and no decoration is visible, however decoration is visible on the other fragment. The decoration comprises pairs of transverse lines dividing the frame into smaller panels. Though only a portion remains, it is probable that it comprised a repeated pattern of two smaller panels with a longer one between. The surviving longer panel is decorated with six punched circles.
