Object type: BROOCH
Broad period: MEDIEVAL
County: Northamptonshire
Workflow stage: Published
An annular brooch made of copper alloy. The brooch is circular, with an internal diameter of 22.0mm. The frame is thin and flat in cross-section. There is a very narrow constriction (2mm wide) in the frame, around which the pin would have been looped; the pin is now missing. It appears that the pin might have been rent from the frame as the frame is bent out of alignment on one side of this junction. Such damage, however, could equally have been caused by the plough. The internal and external edges have been given border grooves on both front and reverse. On the front, between these g…

Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A plain, tinned copper-alloy buckle. The buckle is double looped and trapezoidal in shape. There are lobed protrusions at either end of the bar. The outside edge of the buckle is bevelled. Otherwise complete, the buckle’s pin is missing. The buckle is post-medieval and dates from around 1620 to 1680. Whilst undecorated, in form the buckle is similar to an example illustrated in Whitehead (1996, page 82; fig. 514). In profile one end of the buckle appears raised, perhaps due to plough damage.

Broad period: POST MEDIEVAL

Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A circular copper-alloy button. There is a shallow concave depression in the back of the button. In the centre of this depression the loop (now largely missing following an old break) begins. The front of the button is flat in profile and features a incised device. The device consists of a shield with diagonal cross surmounted by a five-pointed crown with small circles at each of the terminal points. The shield rests on two fronds which interlock at its base. The flat profile of the button, with its design, suggest a late seventeenth to early eighteenth century date.

Transverse ribs between the horseshoe-shaped ridge and the edge serve to create eight cells, three of which contain traces of red enamel. The re…
