A worn and corroded dove type horseshoe of medieval date. Both branches are equal in length and both are tapered towards the heel, which has been thickened by the addition of folded back calkins. There are three sub-rectangular nail holes to each branch; these are countersunk, probably to facilitate the use of T-shaped nails. The inner and outer arches are rounded with the heels wide apart. This small shoe is probably a saddle shoe of circa late 13th to early 14th century. Length of shoe 97.84 mm. Width of shoe 95.46 mm. Thickness 5.41 mm. Weight 100 grams. Reference Ivan G. Sparkes…

A very worn and corroded fragment of an iron dove type horseshoe. The piece consists of the right branch. Three sub-circular nail holes are evident and are countersunk to accept T-shaped nails. One T-shaped nail head has corroded within a hole close to the toe. The heel has the remains of a calkin but corrosion has probably eroded this, rather than wear. The size and weight suggest a saddle shoe of the mid-fourteenth century. Length 107.08 mm. Width 26.04 mm. Thickness 5.47 mm. Weight 60 grams.
