As viewed in plan, with the toe at the top and the bearing surface upwards, the left branch tapers in width from 39mm at the quarter to 15mm in width at the tip. The right hand branch tapers from 44mm at the quarter to 12mm in width at the tip. The left branch has three nail holes. One of the holes has the remains of a corroded nail. It also has a right angled calkin. The right hand branch is feathered and nail holes are not apparent due to corrosion. The horseshoe (or ox-shoe) is corroded and is in poor condition.
