Description: | Fragment of a post-medieval spur, comprising a heart shaped terminal with the stump of an oval-sectioned side. Symmetrically placed attachment holes, at the base of the heart a laterally projecting collar is decorated with a groove along its length. Cf. an example from North Yorkshire (SWYOR-310253). The dimensions of the side suggest the spur was small and delicate, width of side 5mm and thickness 2.5mm. Width of terminal 14.5mm. Surviving overall length 18.5mm. Heart-shaped terminals have been associated with the period of the Civil War (Ellis, B. in Ellis 1993, 165-9, fig. 114, nos. 23-4). 17th century. | Publisher: | http://finds.org.uk | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Identifier: | http://finds.org.uk/database/artefacts/r... | Go to resource |
