Description: | Complete copper-alloy spur rowel of Medieval to post Medieval date. The rowel is in the shape of a five-pointed star. The arms are sub-lozenge in section giving the arms a bevelled appearance. Each arm is decorated with fine transverse grooves runing side-to-side across each of the arms. There is central circular perforation through the centre of the rowel through which there is the remains of an iron rivet. The rowel has a mottled dark green matte patina which is slightly abraded. There are traces of gilding. The rowel is dated c.1400-1700 in line with other examples on the database such as WAW-4E9EE8.
