Description: | A post-Medieval copper-alloy five pointed spur rowel (c. 1500-c. 1750).Due to breaks, only one point now survives.The central area is flat on both faces and the point is pointed-oval in cross-section. The knops that divide the points are intact. A central circular hole to accommodate an axis bar is 3.6mm in diameter. Both faces of the point have decorative transverse grooves which are fairly evenly spaced.This rowel has a shiny dark green patina but is lost in places to reveal the underlying reddish metal.Length: 34.5mm; width: 28.4mm; thickness: 2.1mm. Weight: 3.53g.
