A cast bronze sculpture. The head, part of the front of the tunic, and the two hands remain intact. This female figure is almost certainly a representation of Victoria. Her hair is styled into a bun with a central parting. There are tendrils of hair hanging down at the sides, part of which is missing on the left. The style has been finished off with a modest diadem. The eyes would have been made of opaque, black or white glass; however remnants of the left eye is all that remains.
