The object is triangular in form and sub rectangular in section.

It finally terminates in a curved upper edge. This section is similar to an axe blade and the whole object shares a form similar to a Bronze Age Palstave axe.The object was found in 1990 so is not subject to the Treasure Act (1996) and would not have constituted Treasure Trove.
