This piece has tapering sides with two wide gouged depressions on each of the four faces. On top, there is a trace of a raised circualr area where a domed or conical pinnacle has broken off. Underneath, there are two shallow grooves scros the stone at right-angles to each other representing the tops of the small arches usually found on this type of finial. At each corner, is the stub of one of the square piers.
Site Name: Broadway, Caerleon
Notes: Found in the rubble packing between a drain and the boundary-wall of the parade ground to the south-east of the fortress. The packing was laid when the sides of the drain were raised c.AD.230, but this piece is possibly a later stray.
