I found this odd item in a field that once had a barn on it. Anyone have any idea what it may be?

kind of reminds me of a piece off a trace chain. or maybe off of a yoke used with horse teams.

How big is it ? Almost looks like a connection for say maybe a haywagon?

Doesn't look too far oxidized. Looks like part of a hitch for a tractor implement. JIM

The picture is very close to actual size.

Looks like a flail hammer of some type to me with replacable head .

I believe that is a wire strecther for strecthing barbed wire. The tapered piece should slide back and forth. The way you would use it would be to insert the wire in a notch then stick a rod of some type through the ring, hang the end of the rod behind a post and pull like using a lever. The tapered slide would clamp down on the wire as you exerted presure and ease up to release the wire when you took pressure off. Hope this helps. HH
