Description: | A complete copper-alloy Roman lock pin. Measuring 30mm in total length. Consisting of a flat rectangular shaped shaft, 21.4mm in length, 5.6mm in width and 3.4mm in thickness, with a small central circular hole through it near to its terminal, now filled with corroded iron. At the other end of the rectangular shaft there is a head, circular in plan, measuring c11.8mm in diameter and 8.9mm in length. It consists of a flat circular disc with a circumferencial groove and above this the sides of the head flare out slightly and the upper face is sunk around a high central cone, with a central circular indentation. This lock pin is similar to one discovered at Colchester, although the head is more spindle shaped in this parallel (Crummy 1983, 124-125, fig 137, no 4143).
