Description: | Rectangular-section (3 x 2 mm) copper-alloy rod, now bent. At one end the section flattens to a 2 mm square and then expands, possibly being broken at a perforation (if so, very old break). At the centre, the rod is bent through nearly 90 degrees; towards the other end the section becomes square and there are two flattened expanded lobes, one beyond the other. All these expanded areas are c. 4 mm wide. The rod is again bent at this point. The object is corroded to a matt brown, which can be a characteristic of late post-medieval copper alloys. Unbent length c. 60 mm.
