Iron Age iron brooch
Three coil mock spring secured with a cylindrical rivet. Two fragments of the bow or pin also survivie but it too fragmetary to identify to type. However, the use of cylinder rivets is common in Hull and Hawkes (1987) group 2C and would seem more likely within Steads (1991) La Tene II groups D-J.
