[QUOTE="say_it_slowly, post: 4389935, member: 50"]Thanks everyone for your thoughts! This morning I got an email with a "maybe" identification. Not knowing myself what sort of hooks might have held slate tiles in place and googling modern ones, I have questions, however, perhaps they are actually a form of slate tile hook. I did ask if the back of the square had any sign of a broken shank but apparently they are very smooth with no indication of something broken off. Apparently the mansion had a slate tile roof at one time that was removed so who knows[ATTACH]369535[/ATTACH]? This came with the email. [URL]https://www.nachi.org/slate-roofs-part6-125.htm[/URL] [ATTACH=full]369536[/ATTACH] This is what I'm finding for modern slate hooks which seem different.
