Equipment model; Anchor model; Half killick
Scale: Unknown. A model of a half killick from Portloe, Cornwall consisting of a single slightly flat arm tapering at either end through which passes two wooden rods dowled through. The rods enclose an oval-shaped, dark grey coloured stone which is set at a right angle to the arm and has been notched at the top and bottom. The two rods are then lashed together just above the stone, continuing all the way up forming a rope lashing with an eye. The stone is also held in place by a single lashing which passes underneath the flat base.
