Middle Anglo-Saxon copper-alloy pin with globular head and an integral collared shaft. The shaft is bent once (around 70-80 degrees) and may be complete. It measures approximately 42mm from the collar at base of the head to the tapering but blunt tip. The head is almost entirely covered with punched ring-and-dot impressions. There are four on the upper hemisphere, surrounding a small slightly-flattened area directly on top (opposite the shaft), seven around the middle, and six surrounding the shaft on the underside, none of which are particularly regularly-spaced.  The shaft is …

About half of the flat circular frame of an early Anglo-Saxon copper-alloy annular brooch, with an original diameter of c. 40mm. One break is across a neat rounded hole in the frame. This may be the pin hole, but on the reverse there is solder around the hole and it may possibly alternatively be a repair. There is also some iron corrosion on the reverse here, which could be from the pin. The frame is otherwise well preserved here, and at 6.1mm wide appears to retain its original width. The inner edge is 1.2mm thick and it tapers towards the outer edge which is 0.6mm thick. Th…

Fragment of copper alloy, probably a small piece of foot from an early Anglo-Saxon cruciform brooch. The fragment is C-shaped in cross-section, hollow on the reverse, and is broken at both ends (one break fairly fresh and granular, the other more worn). At one end, the front has a bold moulding, 4-5mm deep and flat-topped, which is divided into two by an off-centre transverse groove. The overall surviving length is 21.1mm, maximum width 12.8mm and maximum thickness (at moulding) 6.0mm. It weighs 4.93g. It seems likely that this is one of the mouldings at the top of a horse's …

Head and bow from an early Anglo-Saxon copper-alloy small-long brooch. The flat, apparently undecorated headplate has a sub-rectangular central panel with three flat 'knobs', all of which appear to have been mushroom-shaped, or D-shaped above narrowed waists. This shape of headplate is often known as 'trefoil'. On the reverse of the headplate is a broken pin bar lug (worn breaks) with iron staining around it. All the edges of the headplate are worn. The bow is D-shaped in cross-section, quite highly arched and simple, with a groove across the top the onl…

Head and bow from an early Anglo-Saxon copper-alloy small-long brooch. The flat headplate is very worn and its original shape is uncertain, but it has the remains of deep U-shaped cut-outs in both its lower edge and its upper corners, forming three knobs. These may have had straight ends, as the top and one side knob each retain a straight row of crescentic stamps along their edges. On the reverse of the headplate is a large double pin bar lug, one lug incomplete and the other retaining part of an iron pin bar. There is extensive iron corrosion between the two lugs.  The bow…

Complete early Anglo-Saxon copper-alloy small-long brooch, now in two joining parts. The head is of the 'cross potent' type, with a flat rectangular central panel c. 13 x 18mm. This has three sub-rectangular flat 'knobs' attached by narrower waists, to form a headplate in total 32.2mm wide. The surface is corroded and some is missing, but traces of double-crescent or half ring-and-dot stamps can be seen; there is a row of five on the top knob and a similar row on one side knob, each with a trace of a single groove outside the row of stamps. On the reverse of the headpla…

Fragment of early Anglo-Saxon copper-alloy girdle-hanger. Using Felder's terminology (2014, 35, fig. 3.1), the fragment consists of the suspension loop, shank neck and part of shank, with a granular, unworn break. The suspension loop is a narrow, rounded lobe at the top, pierced from side to side, but the perforation is now blocked with iron corrosion. The shank neck is a D-section area below the suspension loop, divided into five rounded lobes; its junction with the shank is marked with a transverse ridge. The shank itself is rectangular-section and flares very slightly …

Chunky copper-alloy bar from an early Anglo-Saxon wrist-clasp, apparently of Hines Form B10 or possibly alternatively B4. The bar is cast in one piece, with three cuboidal elements, one in the centre and one at either end. These are linked by D-section areas, each one decorated with two broad U-section transverse grooves or flutes, alternating with three ridges each flanked by narrow grooves. Each of the cuboidal bosses has a substantial white-metal coating, probably of tin. On the flat reverse there are two broken pierced lugs, set transversely and pierced longitudinally. Length 40.3…
