Title
Tongue horseshoe fragment. Front view.
Description
English: An incompete, fragment of a Post Medieval, forged, wrought iron, medium sized tongue horseshoe. This has a 'U' or tunnel like shaped inner edge with relatively wide frog and heels wide apart - usually used on riding horses. There are just two, rectangular shaped nail holes visible on this branch and traces of fullering, which would indicate a later date. There is no calkin. This horseshoe is broken at a worn point at the toe and has rusty corrosion all over. This horsehoe is likely to date between 1750-1815. Ref. Detector Finds 3, Gordon Bailey, Greenlight Publishing 1997, page 40-41 and Old Horseshoes, Shire Album 19, Ivan G. Sparkes, Shire Publishing, page 17-21 and inside cover. This broken horse shoe measures 99.27mm long, 53.8mm wide, 7.1mm thick and weighs 58.7g.
