Description: | Fragment of terret of unusual shape. Part of the rectangular-section bar survives, and measures 6.5 x 3 mm in cross-section at the unworn break. The single surviving stop is 11.5 mm in diameter, and from its top emerges a second bar which continues the curving line of the stop's arc. This runs parallel with the bar, and presumably held a strap which fixed the terret to the yoke. It also ends in an unworn break. The hoop survives much more poorly, and is now not much more than a blunt point; it tapers from the stop to a very worn break. | Subjects: | terret | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Geake, Helen - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
