Description: | Small key 35mm long with a shaft of 5mm gauge, an integrally-cast loop of 10mm diameter, and with bit 9mm long, 6mm high from the shank, and 2mm thick. The bit is T-shaped, essentially a plain flat lever with a square indentation fore and aft as the key is viewed from its side. The end of the shaft is hollowed for engagement onto a pin. The shape of the key indicates that it is Mediaeval, probably from the earlier part of the post-Conquest period.
