Description: | Cast copper alloy spur dating from the post-medieval period, that is c. AD1500-1700. The object is a rowel spur with the main body still intact, but very worn. It would have had double attachment loops at the front, but they are now missing. The terminal of the spur still shows the split ends with perforated sides which would have held the star-shaped rowel in place, but that and its axis bar are now missing, too. The spur was undecorated except for a small moulding between the main body and the curved horizontal bar that held the rowel.
