Description: | Copper alloy bell-shaped fitting with slightly tapering integral tang of rectangular cross-section, Allason-Jones Type II. There is a circular perforation in the upper part of the tang filled with iron corrosion. Fittings such as these are usually described as lockpins and are discussed by Allason Jones (1985) and again by Allason-Jones and McKay (1985, Coventinas Well, A shrine on Hadrians Wall). In the latter survey the authors point out a 2nd/3rd century date for their use on the northern frontiers of the province.
