Summary
Floor tile - Design 76 - The tile is large and plain with a dark green glaze. Potentially 14th to 15th century. This design is not in the Burnett-Brown Tile Collection Report. The tile is in good condition but it is missing a chunk from one corner. There is a large, crater like hole in the tile, likely from where a blown raised area, created from the firing process, has been damaged. There is a layer of shiny glaze across the tile with very few dull patches. The top surface is a little pitted. On the reverse is a single, central scoop.
