FIGURE 17. OBJECTS OF IRON, BRASS, BONE, AND GLASS
1. Ring, iron, with evidence of wear at one side; possibly a handle or a chain terminal. T.N. 23.
2. Loop, iron, with the ends perhaps originally meeting; possibly a handle or a chain terminal. T.N. 19.
3. Horseshoe, iron. Rudimentary key-hold type, much decayed but with slight traces of fullering, probably eight nail holes, four on each side. The lug at left terminal would seem to have been created by the loss of a fragment of the outer edge. This is a typical 17th-century form, but one that continued into the 18th century.[146] T.N. 24.
4. Handle from scythe, iron. The wooden shaft was approximately 1-5/8 in. in diameter at point of contact. T.N. 24.
