Finds from Wirral – Small Long Brooch

This is a “small long” brooch dating from AD 450-550. It is broken and would have been longer at the bottom in this photograph.

There are still traces of the iron pin on the rear.

This is an unusual find in our part of the world as these brooches are normally found in the South and East of England. As such it has been designated by PAS as of County/Local Importance.
