I've wanted to put these kind of fasteners on my paenula for a while now, but also had trouble coming across information
and how common they were, or not.
Not a big fan of toggles or brooches myself, but that's my own thing.
Err I would hazard a guess at Very Common.... see here:
Portable Antiquities Scheme online:
https://finds.org.uk/database/search/res...eriodTo/21
A good place to look for stuff...
I would suggest many different uses, the tear drop shapes seem perfect for easily pushing through a hole...

"And the four bare walls stand on the seashore. a wreck a skeleton a monument of that instability and vicissitude to which all things human are subject. Not a dwelling within sight, and the farm labourer, and curious traveller, are the only persons that ever visit the scene where once so many thousands were congregated." T.Lewin 1867
