The central block is sub-rectangular in plan and cross-section. It is perforated vertically at the centre to accommodate the shaft of the suspension loop. On the underside, at either side of the perforation, there is a large 'V'-shaped nick. The front and back of the central block is decorated with a low relief groove forming a border. The suspension loop is incomplete and the separate rove at the opposite end of the shaft is intact. The suspension loop, its shaft and the rove are fused to the central block. At each end of the central block there is a short arm terminating with a separate domed rove. Between this rove and the central block at each end there are the remains of a frame. These fragments of the frame are free moving.
All elements are made of copper-alloy.
This object is covered with light green corrosion products and has traces of a green patina. The breaks are old and there is a large dent on one face of the central block.
Height: 31.67mm; width: 48.38mm; thickness: 8.59mm. Weight: 35.57g.
A similar purse bar is illustrated in Ward-Perkins 1940; 167, Fig. 52, ref: B1 the late 15th to early 16th centuries. 
A similar purse bar has been recorded from Sellack Parish, Herefordshire.
