Copper alloy and iron brooch. Cast headstud brooch, Mackreth type Headstud 8.b. A plain tubular case retains an iron axis bar for a hinged iron pin, the stub of which remains. It is concealed by short wings which appear triangular when viewed from above, with a V-shaped cell retaining dark blue enamel on each wing, with triangular cells adjacent to the blue triangles suggesting enamel of another tint may be lost. A low ridge passes along the crest of the bow, tapering out at the site of a separate oval stud with central annulus retaining mid blue enamel and surrounded by a deep g…

A large oval ‘ear’ and coiled upturned ‘snout’ are depicted above a sharply constricted ‘neck’, with an eye between them comprising two nested circular cells, the outermost retaining dull brick red enamel and the inner with a spot of [now] ochre buff tint.

Copper alloy brooch. Cast Aucissa brooch, Mackreth type AVCISSA 2.b. A small T-shaped head is split and rolled upwards and forward to retain pin gear [lost]. Below the T, the bow expands to acquire a D-section tapered form with a deep central flute. On either side, diagonally incised lines appear. The bow ends at a basal collar and constriction, with a plain triangular foot below, with the stub of a catch plate behind it. The entire surface retains white metal plating, gratifying a particular fashionable preference of the 1st-century Roman Army. Slick with oil from treatment by the fi…

Copper alloy brooch fragment. Cast mid-bow moulding and lower bow of a trumpet brooch, cf. Mackreth type TR 1.b1. The lower bow has been smoothed where it should expand as a pedestal foot and the conversion of this fragment to another function altogether seems probable. Three plain mouldings which do not pass round the bow appear below a discoid knop which does itself pass round the bow. The disc is clasped by three petals above and below, but only one worn moulding appears above these. The lower bow is sharply keeled with a longitudinal rib behind, but does not retain any trace of a …

Copper alloy plate brooch fragment. The central part of a cast plate brooch, Mackreth type British Plate 2.b, especially no. 11599. A now oval plate was probably achieved by trimming the border from the brooch. What remains comprises a reserved six lobed figure with central reserved annulus. A hexagonal cell around the centre is filled with brick red enamel. The reserved dots appear against a paler field of [now] greenish tint. The single stub of a seat for a sprung pin and the opposed stub of a catch plate appear on the back. Suggested date: Roman, 175-300

Copper alloy brooch. Cast plate brooch, Mackreth type British Plate 6.g. A rhomboid plate with a rounded knop at each angle, that masking the seat of a hinged pin being probably collared and larger, with a central concavo-convex boss decorated with cells defining a cross with a tiny central pit in the reserved metal at the centre. A triangular cell of cobalt blue enamel appears in the end of each arm of the cross, and the fields between its arms are filled by brick red enamel. The stub of a catch plate remains behind that knop opposite the enlarged one masking the pin. Shiny, probably…

Copper alloy brooch. Cast oval plate brooch, Mackreth type British Plate 3.b2. A massy gilded plate has a bevelled external rim with a wavy scorper-graved line along its outer canted edge. It confines a bordered outer gutter filled by closely juxtaposed circular stamps of diameter 1.4mm. The inner rim of this part of the composition limits three bands of cabled ornament around a central oval cell with an upstanding wall whose upper edge clasped an oval conical stone of dark glass, now chipped. The original tint is obscured by treatment with oil by the finder. The stubs of a pin seat a…

Copper alloy trumpet brooch. Cast trumpet brooch, possibly Mackreth type TR 1.b2. Mackreth’s typology appears to place spring fastened brooches first, but this more closely resembles that earlier part of his series rather than his specifically hinged type TR 4. A plain trumpet head with border and a small tab on top conceals a tubular case for the passage of an axis bar for a hinged pin [both lost], formerly continuing as a separate wire top loop [mostly lost]. Below the head the D-section upper bow is constricted, before meeting two mouldings either side of a mid-bow disc, none of …

A small circular plate bears a six-pointed star with trapezoid rays forming cells around a broad central reserved dot with a round cell in the middle. The stubs of paired lugs retaining a three coil spring and an opposed catch plate on the back.

Copper alloy brooch fragment. Cast foot of a bow brooch, perhaps a Roman-era Colchester brooch, Mackreth type C, with a plain narrow straight-sided front, lightly curved and smoothed, and an unpierced folded catch plate behind it. The unpierced catch plate suggests a Roman rather than an earlier date. From a large plain brooch. Suggested date: Early Roman, 43-75

Copper alloy possible brooch fragment. Round section drawn wire pin of round section with a sharp crook at its broader looped end, and hammered flat to a width of 3.1mm with a tiny turned catch at the other. The putative head is notched, bent back and nearly separated from the ‘bow’ by presumably adventitious damage. If a brooch, this would be unusually large, and of a simple form which might relate to the early Colchester brooches, and has lost most of its spring. Otherwise this might be a looped headed pin with a modified narrower end, perhaps for a cord between ‘head’ and â…

Silver brooch fragment. The identification of the material has been disputed by the finder. Kevin Leahy therefore kindly re-examined the object under a microscope, and comments as follows: 'The fracture suggests that this piece is copper alloy'. The record has therefore been amended, with the silver surface appearance now considered as plating.
Cast bow from a small bow brooch, possibly Mackreth type Almgren 16. A straight-sided bow with a central longitudinal ridge and with grooved borders; neatly cross-cut horizontally and diagonally at its lower end. The top is constricted and…

Copper alloy brooch fragment. Cast headstud brooch, Mackreth type Headstud 11b. A [now] five coiled spring is mounted on a bar passing through a lug projecting from behind the head, the bar probably formerly continued as a separate top loop [if so, lost], with the central coil of the spring formerly projecting forward over the chord. Short wings angled back bear vertical grooves, forming an expansion of a narrow rectangular section upper bow with a round integral stud below its crest. Below the stud the bow narrows, and a long central cell retains a plate of [now] pale grey enamel; th…

Copper alloy brooch. Cast trumpet brooch, Mackreth type TR 1.2b6 from the decorative scheme, though that is a spring fastened type and this brooch is hinged. A rounded trumpet head with a border conceals a tubular case for the axis bar retaining a hinged pin. The bow is constricted below the head, expanding at a single moulding from which spring three petals clasping a central disc which does not pass all around the bow. A further set of petals and a moulding below the disc gives way to a lower bow of keeled section, tapering to terminate on a pedestal foot with a folded catch plate b…
