Description: | Copper alloy spur fragment from a drop-neck spur and dating to the 17th century. The spur is curved in order to fit the heel and has a triangular section (the flat side being that which would have fitted against the wearer), and the neck is short. The end of the neck is broken off but a small portion of the slot into which the rowel would have fitted remains; it is lozenge shaped in section. Where the neck joins the spur is a lozenge shaped decorative moulding. The fragment weighs 28g and measures 58.3mm in length and 48.3mm in width. | Format: | text/html | License: | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/ | Publisher: | The Portable Antiquities Scheme | Rights holder: | The Portable Antiquities Scheme | Subjects: | archaeology | Temporal: | 1600
