Re: General knowledge
I think we need a clue
The spike seems to be wound with leather to grip something and the end seems to be split as if to hold a pin to hold something on the spindle
Maybe something like a wool or thread large bobbin winder

Re: General knowledge
Susie, you have provided your own clue. It is a winder but not for yarn. It is for something much stronger than that.
It definitely doesn't belong to Carol!

Re: General knowledge
Wire is correct Susie. Now all you need is the product. Imagine the final shape.

Re: General knowledge

Woodchester was the site of a roman palace.
The pavement can be found beneath the local churchyard.

Re: General knowledge
The actual photo was taking at Prinknash Abbey where the replica has been housed for some years. Sadly it now looks as though the replica will end up in the USA
The original is never likely to be exposed again.
