Dr Jen Howe on Instagram: "The Battle of Towton, which was fought on 29 March 1461 as part of the Wars of the Roses, was one of the bl00diest battles of the Wars of the Roses. This riding spur, lost to battle, was found again in the 20th century. Its inscription reads: ‘in loyal love, all my heart’ - which may have been used to show love, wish luck, and also try and offer some kind of protection.
