Scope and content

Tr. 2: Pair of corroded and concreted metalworking or smithing pliers. These tools were used in blacksmithing for the removal of nails from horseshoes, hot working and general craft activities (weight 229g, length c. 150mm); found with several square cross- sectioned nails and fragment of a horseshoe (weight 68g and tending to the large, Shire horse size of shoe). Although somewhat corroded these are most likely post-Medieval in date, but provide on-site evidence of metalworking and or smithing.
