Description: | Iron Age /Romanao-British fragment (28 x 19mm) of terret, comprising a rectangular sectioned very slightly trapezoidal loop attached to the remains of the curved tapering ring. Terrets were used in paired draught to guide the reins from the horse's mouths to the hands of the driver. In total, five terrets form a complete set. All five were placed along the yoke, with the central terret being larger than the other four. Probably first century AD.
