A metal post support ground spike (40) is disclosed. The support includes a post receiving socket (50), and a flat plate (60). The flat plate is welded to at least two of the four walls of the post receiving socket. The post support may also comprise a blades portion (41) welded to the flat plate. The blades portion, post receiving socket and flat plate may all have reinforcement lines (46, 47, 55) stamped therein and may comprise metals of varying thickness and rigidity. The flat plate may comprise the thickest and most rigid metal, whereas the post receiving socket and/or the blades may be made from a thinner and/or less rigid metal. Clamps in the form of tabs (56) may assist to hold a post in the socket by the use of fasteners passing through holes (58) and being tightened.
