Description: | A large, incomplete cast copper-alloy rowel from a rowel spur of Medieval date. The central portion of the rowel survives intact, along with three of the projecting points, the remainder missing due to old breaks. It is flat, circular in shape and with a central circular perforation. Radiating from the perforation are the remains of 20 points, which are oval shaped in plan and section. The surviving fragment measures 50.19mm in length, 29.60mm in width, 5.01mm in thickness, and weighs 22.55g. Similar rowels have been recorded on the PAS database and date to the 14th or 15th centuries AD (see for example HAMP-2AD191, CORN-5243E2 and SOMDOR-532266).
