Full Description

Metal detected bronze disc brooch 2.8cm in diameter with a central lozenge surrounded by interlace. The brooch belongs to a group of Anglo-Scandinavian brooches ornamented in a debased variant of the Borre style C10-C11 (S1). The brooch is fairly degraded by corrosion but the design is still discernible. It was fround using a metal detector (see 'Not to be published on web' tab for finder/s and/or findspot/s).
On loan to Moyses Hall Museum (S2).
