Description

Plate 14 from the Castle Garden collection

A panel depicting four shields and an Anthropomorphic figure. The upper left hand shield is a simple design of an oblong bar with a circle on each side. Beside it appears the figure of a man. The upper right hand shield bears two turtles, similar to the others at Castle Gardens, and a snake-like figure. It is natural to suppose that the shield had four turtles in each quarter before erosion removed the right two turtles. The two lower shields have designs of a symbolic nature and are too worn to for recohnition. Note how visitors have defaced the sandstone.
