Description: | Incomplete flat wrought iron horseshoe of unknown date, possibly Late Medieval or Early Post Medieval (AD 1400 ? AD 1600). Length 115mm, width 110mm and 8mm thick. Weight 285.32g. The tips of each branch are broken and missing. As viewed in plan, with the breaks at the bottom, the left branch (roughly 48mm in width) is much wider than the right hand branch which tapers from 40mm to 24mm where the break has occurred. Due to corrosion, it is not possible to determine how many nail holes occupied each branch or whether the shoe had calkins or other distinguishing features. | 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: | 1400
