Post-Medieval ceramic floor tile
Lewis Group 24 No.378B
Slip-on impression. 16 tile design: circular band of pierced cinquefoils surrounding a frieze of crouching lions; a similar inner circle surrounds a double eight-petalled rose; in each inner spandrel is a lion mask with leaves issuing from the mouth, and in each outer spandral two oak-type leaves on stalk. The stamps apparently correspond to the Canynges stamps.
