Nail
These sixteen aluminium alloy nails are for ‘racing plates’ – light-weight horseshoes used for racing made of aluminium rather an iron. They were made by Robert Wood of Newton Street Works in Bolton. They are part of a large collection of traditional craft products acquired from the British Council in 1960.
