Attempting #MuseumDocumentation improvements for this bone zoomorphic plaque from #Roman #Wroxeter today. Stuck staring blankly at Object Title Description field. All I can think to call it is “Loch Ness Monster Shaped Thingy”. Any suggestions?

It’s a big old barn. Probably photographed in the 1920s. Found with images of #Brighton and #Worthing at Brighton Museums. Possibly #Sussex but that hill to the right in the first image looks a bit steep for the #SouthDowns .
