Small rear hokk, also traces of possible solder corrosion on the right hand side of the rear of the wings. The wings have narrow angular grooves and ribs which, unusually, curve slightly. The bow has a convex back and steep sides; the narrow face is slightly convex with a centre transversely hatched rib flanked by single grooves. The bow tapers to a blunt point. At the foot it appears that the catchplate was a separate sheet set in a narrow slot. Width 17mm, length 34.6mm. | Subjects: | Colchester derivative (rear hook) | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Plouviez, Judith | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
