Title: Re: small seal Post by: hotmill on May 15, 2014, 08:11:42 AM A very nice find!
Title: Re: small seal Post by: Val Beechey on May 15, 2014, 08:41:49 AM All it proves is that I check the smallest detail ::)
I am curious though about the seal. If there is one, already recorded, and presumably in a different area can that mean that it may have been the seal of an organisation or group of people.?? If so what sort of organisation could it have been other than Archery related. ?? (See detail again) Val Title: Re: small seal Post by: congerman on May 15, 2014, 09:50:03 AM very nice well searched ;)
Title: Re: small seal Post by: b.buoy on May 15, 2014, 09:59:23 AM It was suggested that it could be the "oddfellows" who apparently were into drinking and wenching, although not necessarily in that order.
Will post when I have any further details Title: Re: small seal Post by: cardiffian on May 15, 2014, 05:14:55 PM That is a very nice find. Well done.
