I have some Intertechnik crossover development boards. These have 2mm through holes, copper plated pads, and the holes are rather wide apart.
I have a preference for soldering on something with a crimp tag or a screw terminal, but I'm not finding anything.
Maybe I'm not using quite the right search term - 'pcb screw terminal' doesn't find me singles, just terminals with two or more screws, albeit some variations of spacing.
Any suggestions?

Might help to give the spacing and a picture.
On odd spacing I've used inductor wire soldered to the PCB and then a terminal block added. I like mechanical connection to the PCB as makes it more friendly so you don't end up with an octopus. I mostly use 1.5mm inductor wire but have used smaller depending on the PCB holes.

Exactly how far apart - there are various pitches of PCB mount screw-terminal out there...
This is what they look like: https://willys-hifi.com/products/crossover-development-circuit-board-medium
The inter-centre space between rows is about 10mm and between the closest holes within a row is about 12mm.
I have some of these Jantzen boards also: https://www.hificollective.co.uk/loudspeaker-parts/011-1000-jantzen-universal-pcb.html
Inter-row is also 10mm, and on these the inter-pad is 10mm as well.
(I didn't measure the pad-to-edge-bus on either)
