Description: | A cast copper alloy post-medieval spur. The rowel box, the neck and two broken sides all survive. The breaks at the ends of the sides are very worn and corroded. One side is shorter than the other, which survives at a much longer length. Both sides have been decorated with moulded designs. The rowel box is also decorated with moulded designs. The sides have a D-section which is pointed towards the middle. The neck has a diamond section. The neck is short and thickens towards the rowel box. The metal is slightly pitted and much of the original surface has been lost. The surface is a mid reddish-green colour. This spur probably dates from circa 1650 - 1800.
