Description: | Incomplete cast copper alloy spur of post Medieval date. The spur is of rowel type although the rowel is missing and only the split projection for carrying the rowel and a small segment of the arms survive. The arms are D-shaped in section and the projection is circular in section. At the point where the projection meets the arms there is a single raised ridge with accompanying groove. The terminals of the rowel projection for securing the rowel in place are broken. The surface has slight traces of gilding.Spurs of this type are typically dated c.1650-1750.
