Went out today. Took these pics for Dungbeetle. I tried to post it in the other thread NWDD but it wouldnt work for some reason. Kept timing out.

Anyhow. Cracking roman brooch with its enamel still. They are his finds not mine.

Can anyone give me an id on the shortcross that I found last week ? I think the brooch is a Wirral type but not sure as I don't get much Roman stuff up here.

Cheers Jason, I'd already had a look at that. There are that many variations of the things, I get dizzy looking at them.

great finds Chris, just 1 of them items would make my day! great brooch too i will dig out the info posted for my one by Geoff, im thinking it will apply to yours too  Huh

Sharkey

brooch info -  it's a Wroxeter type which are actually derivatives of trumpet brooches, yours has a hinged pin and not a Polden hills spring, it dates up to around 150AD and is far more of a common find in the north Midlands.
It's classified as a Hattatt 1538
