Findspot changed from TL988740 (which was actually the Duke of Marlborough PH) to TL 9857 7479 which corrresponds with the site of the former Half Moon PH (CP, 1/4/2011).
Very similar to example from Ixworth (R1), possibly from same mould. Later modified by insertion of small rivet behind the beast. Details and drawing in (S1).
