Description: | An incomplete copper-alloy spur of Post-Medieval date. What survives of the spur weighs 24.15g. This artefact is very similar to the example shown in Read, B. 2001 (Metal Artefacts Of Antiquity) p.65, Fig 41, item 498. The straight rowel box is set at more of an angle from the arms of the spur on this artefact than on Read's example and the 'u' shape of the neck is more pronounced on this example, shallower on Read's. The slight lip on the underside of the rowel box where it attaches to the neck is also more pronounced on this artefact. The lip is 1.80mm thick.
