Description: | The wings appear to be semi-cylindrical, with wing caps. However, in shape the wings are quite angular. The terminal of the wings are decorated with vertical linear grooves. At the centre of the upper edge ofthe wings is a small hook which supports a horizontal bar of the spring. The spring, and axis bar are in place, but the pin is missing.
The bow head is also angular, but has a slight hump-like shape. In the centre are two fine vertical grooves. The bow tapers from the bow head and tapers slightly. The bow is sub-square in section.
Only a fragment of the bow remains. The break of the bow does not appear to be a recent break, and is above the catchplate.
The patina is a grey/green colour. | Format: | text/html | License: | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/ | Publisher: | The Portable Antiquities Scheme | Rights holder: | The Portable Antiquities Scheme | Subjects: | archaeology | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Angie Bolton | Identifier: | http://www.finds.org.uk/database/artefac... | Language: | en-GB | Format: | text/html | Go to resource |
