Abstract:
The Galactic Centre is home to a number of unusual non-thermal radio
emitting objects, such the filaments and threads near Sgr A, the Snake, and
G357.7-0.1. This paper presents recent high resolution radio
observations of an object first catalogued at low resolution nearly 20
years ago, which reveal it to have unsuspected properties. The possible
classifications of this object are discussed.
