The shaft is edged by a single roll moulding.
A (broad): One register of simple pattern F survives with two strands joining the register below.
B (narrow): The top of the face is broken away. One unit composed of two closed circuit loops survives.
C (broad): Dressed smooth.
D (narrow): At the top is a wide worn band; below, a bungled interlace with what looks like a free ring but which could be an attempt at pattern F.
Such shafts with simple patterns which imitate earlier interlace types are common in south Durham, for example, at Aycliffe or Coniscliffe (Introduction, p. 18).
