Description: | Iron possible clench nail fragment. Wrought iron diamond-shaped rove with a probably rectangular-section shank running up to it. This may alternatively be a diamond-headed handmade nail used in a similar setting, but the rhomboid form more usually denotes a rove. Though associated with early boats, the clench nail was used more widely for fastening wooden structural elements. Suggested date: Medieval, 1200-1500.Length (rove): 37.7mm, Width: 31.1mm, Weight: 55.30gms.
