The head, type A10/B10, is separated from the shaft by a broad boldly projecting moulding.
A (broad): The head is outlined by a picked grooved moulding, and this surrounds four pattern E knots, the strands of which are plain at the top and median-incised on the other arms. The pattern is bungled.
B and D (narrow): Plain.
C (broad): As on A the arms are carved with bungled pattern E knots, with median-incised strands, surrounded by a grooved moulding. The two vertical and the two horizontal arms are separately linked round the central raised boss, thus forming a square frame for the boss.
