Description: | A copper-alloy possible spur terminal, the arm is rectangular in shape, incomplete and 25mm in length and 15mm wide. The terminal has three circular perforations, two are one above the other set a right angles to the end of the arm, this is reminiscent of figure-of-eight stirrup terminals, the third perforation is in the terminal of the spur and filled with corroded iron. The front face has transverse grooves at the broken end of the arm and two grooves either side of the first circular perforation. This possible spur terminal is likely to be late medieval or early post-medieval in date no exact parallel could be found although its form is similar to the figure-of-eight spurs found at London (Clark 1995 140-141, Fig 99 and 100).
