Description: | An incomplete cast copper alloy Post-Medieval rowel spur dating from about the 17th-18th Century. The spur is formed of a curved and flattened copper alloy band which would fit around the base of the ankle/heel. Both terminals are missing. The breaks show the arm to be D shaped in section. In the centre of the curve is a projection which splits into two with a slot where a rowel would have fitted. Compare to PAS record ID: LVPL-319747 and SWYOR-8AEE12. The small size of this spur may suggest it belonged to a child.
