Bronze censer-cover, Anglo-Saxon, late 10th-early 11th ce. The cover is in the form of a church tower crowned by a gabled roof of Rhenish (Rhineland) style. The censer-cover would have been placed over a bowl of burning incense and hung from chains at each corner. On one side is inscribed in Anglo-Saxon '+GODRIC ME WORHT', 'Godric made me' possibly a metalworker associated with Pershore Abbey, Worcestershire, close to where the censer-cover was discovered.
