    Rectangular wooden printing block showing:- Obverse: carved and engraved design depicting gravestone incised with a cross, with symmetrical floral-like patterns at the right angles of each arm, and an elongated lower arm taking the form of a blade. Ink residue remaining on surface. Reverse: print of image on obverse attached to surface.
    Similar in form and style to LDSAL2022.1.108, but no record remains in the Proceedings:- it is possible that the page (p. 165) is missing from the printed and digitised versions of volume 3 because the accompanying text referring to the objects ends abruptly.

    Digitised thanks to the kind donation of Mr Martin Williams FSA.
