Found this on my fair hunt as well What is it?

I found this today at a location in the field where I found the 1840 half. Someone said there use to be a stagecoach stop there. My guess is that it is a piece that you put your leg on to help you hop on and off the buggy? Any ideas??

I don't think it's a buggy step, here's a buggy step.

The iron object appears to be the broken and bent end from an early strap hinge.
