Title
Anglo-Saxon fragment
Description
English: Fragment of a copper alloy object, possibly a trefoil brooch. The object is symmetrical, flat and has two of the three lobes surviving. The face of the object has an uncertain decoration formed by lines and curves. The reverse of the object is plain and shows no evidence of their being any mechanisms such as a pin lug or catchplate that would assign the object as a brooch. The reverse of both of the lobes have a worn circular feature, which might be the remains of two studs that would indicate its use as a mount.
