Well this old lady was cream crackered all day yesterday. By the time I'd walked the dogs and done a couple of jobs my legs and arms were screaming at me. I sat down for a bite and cuppa mid-day and virtually passed out.  Wait till you're as old as me Doug  Roll Eyes Grin

That should be called the buckle field. Looks like you had another good session.  Is that a seal you've got there ? Have you 'stamped' it yet ?

Best I can do Val, looks like a lion slaying a dragon, or put it another way, I am guessing!

No Doug, it's George slaying the Dragon.   My memory is a bit slow these days but I do remember reading something about it.  I don't think the idea of George was British, it was borrowed.  That's about all that comes to mind at the mo.

Looks like a very interesting find. Wink

Lovely find Doug and I think your spot on with what it depicts, the lion seems to have wings as does the Lion of St Mark and as he was an evangelist I think it represents Christianity conquering paganism which is usually represented by the dragon Wink
