Description: | Medieval/Post-medieval cast copper-alloy rowel spur fragment. The fragment consists of parts of both sides and the neck, but both of the terminals and the rowel are missing. The sides are decorated with diagonal grooves which gives the effect of twisted wire. The break edges are worn smooth. It measures 42.54mm in diameter between the two sides, the sides measure 42.88mm (the side at the bottom of the photograph) and 30.98mm (the side at the top of the photograph) long, the neck measures 25.78mm long, and the spur is 8.02mm thick and weighs 20.95g. Similar spurs can be found in Clark, J. 1995. The Medieval Horse and its Equipment c.1150-c.1450, pages 124-147., and Margeson, S. 1993.
