Description: | A copper alloy object of uncertain date. The object is rectangular in shape, tapering slightly towards the terminal. At the terminal end there are two curved copper alloy projections that form a U-shape on one side of the object, one of which is incomplete due to an old break. The opposite end of the object terminates in an old break, the remainder now missing. The object measures 33.63mm in length, 14.77mm in width, 5.98mm in thickness, and weighs 19.74g. It is uncertain what this object may have been used for or indeed what the complete original form may have been. Possibly it is of Roman date, or perhaps slightly later in the Early-Medieval period, although this is by no means certain.
