Roman sandstone panel
A small fragment of an engraved panel of grey-green micaceous sandstone. A narrow, plain border and a raised spiral twisting to right, are defined by V-sectioned grooves; the beginnings of another spiral twisting to left, can be made out. Between the two spirals are two very faintly incised lines converging at a sharp angle, which may be the stone-mason's guide-lines. The spirals may have formed part of a floral relief.
