There is a worn collar between the bow and the stem. The short, solid subrectangular stem is oval in cross section, with the projecting tip surviving. The bit is a simple square, with no clefts. The bit is damaged on one surface, with a groove most likely caused by pot depositional activity.

The key has an even mid-green patina and the surface is slightly worn. | Subjects: | Rotary | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | McLean, Laura - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
