Title
Cheek piece
Description
English: A complete copper-alloy cheekpiece, measuring 63mm in length. This cheekpiece has a central projecting rectangular shaped boss and two arms of equal length. The arms are rectangular in plan and triangular in cross-section, with a flat back face and a projecting front face, measuring 6mm in width. Both of the arms terminate in circular perforated terminals measuring 18mm externally and 10mm internally. This cheekpiece is most likely to be late early medieval, probably dating to the 11th century, although its terminals are circular, rather than the normal lozenge shape.
