Scope and Contents

Half-plate. (The Fort). High up above the doorway and over the place of the peacock throne. This panel of inlaid stones is about 9 in high by 6 in wide. (Murrays account is utterly ridiculous - for one thing this panel represents a young man, and Austin of Bordeaux was an old man when here). (Fisher).
