Description: | The bow and catchplate remains. The shape of the bow is a cruciform, however the upper stem is incomplete. The foot of the bow is rounded. The 'arms' of the cruciform are very narrow with rounded terminals. Where the horizontal bar meets the bow this area is wider and forms a trapezoidal shape before leading to the upper vertical arm which is incomplete. The catchplate is incomplete and appears to be solid. Decoration is four angled lines on the trapezoidal form of the bow. No spring mount is visible so suggests that the bow is incomplete. This may possibly be a reversed fantail type. | Publisher: | http://finds.org.uk | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Identifier: | http://finds.org.uk/database/artefacts/r... | Go to resource |
