Oval section bow tapering to a flat end. At the top diagonal rib and groove mouldings mark the bow / wing junctions. A narrow centre rib is ?notched or beaded (obscured by corrosion). A slight step up forms a curving flanking line, from the edge at the junction with the wings and curving in to run parallel with the rib on the lower bow. Length 37mm, surviving width 16mm. No close parallels found, broadly similar to an eg from Pakenham, Suffolk (PKM 005 3129)
