Description: | Part of a small copper-alloy rowel from a spur. Three points survive from an original six to eight; each one measures 14 mm from the inner face of the central hole, which was originally about 4 mm across, giving a total original diameter of 32 mm. Each of the points is hexagonal in cross-section and fairly slender, being a maximum of 4 mm wide. There is no visible decoration. Detached spur rowels are hard to date; rowel spurs came into use around 1300 AD.
