Object type: TOGGLE
Broad period: POST MEDIEVAL
County: Milton Keynes
Workflow stage: Published
A copper-alloy early post-medieval object. The item is heart shaed with a triangular hole in the centre, possibly for tying the object to something. The bottom of the object is toggle shaped with a groove. Within this groove is a separate ring of copper-alloy that moves independantly of the toggle, and can swivel around. It is difficult to determine quite what this object was used for, but the heart-shape of its design suggests an early post-medieval date.
