Description: | A fragment of a Medieval to post-Medieval cast copper-alloy spur, probably a rowel spur. The majority of the sides are missing as is the prick or rowel goad. The small portions of the sides are roughly 'D'-shaped in cross-section, convex on the outer face and very slightly convex on the inner face. It has a short broken neck which is oval in cross-section. The back of the spur is decorated with incised lines; one across the shoulders of the neck on one face only, and lines which form a border along the heel of the spur near the neck slant diagonally across the arms meeting at a point.
