Title
Brooch
Description
English: An incomplete copper alloy ansate middle Anglo Saxon brooch. Part of the bow and one of the terminals survive, the rest of this brooch is missing due to old breaks. It is rectangular in shape and measures 27mm in length and 12mm in width. The surviving terminal slopes upwards from the bow at an angle of about 45 degrees and the ends in a flat part, which projects at 90 degrees from the sloping part. The front face of the bow is decorated with two longditudinal grooves inbetween which there is a foilage design, a central 'stem' with diagonally sloping 'leaves' projecting from it. The upwards sloping part of the terminal has four vertical grooves and the flat end of the terminal has the remains of what was probably originally a lozenge shaped groove with an incised cross within it. The back face is undecorated and has the remains of a rectangular shaped protrusion which is likely to have once been the catchplate of this brooch.
