Description: | Cast copper alloy rowel spur from the Post Medieval period, c.1600- 1800.The spur is mostly complete with just the rowel missing. It consists of a C-shaped section with a short extension to hold the rowel.The terminal which would have held the rowel is bi-furcated and each side has a circular hole which would have held a bar to hold the rowel. There is a small raised collar at the junction between the main section and the part holding the rowel. The main section has a D-shaped cross section with the flat edge on the inside, which would have sat against the foot. The terminals of this section are also birfcuated but on a different axis. They also have circular holes and these would have been to allow attachment of the spur to the boot.
