Description: | Medieval floor border tile, rectangular and undecorated, length 135mm, width 65mm, thickness 22-24mm. Three edges are knife trimmed to produce a slight chamfer so that the under side of the tile is slightly smaller than the upper surface. The tile is one of a pair made from a square tile, scored for breaking apart after firing. One edge shows the scar where the halves were joined. The tile is well covered with an orange / green lead glaze which has flowed down over the cut edges. It is of local manufacture and dates from the 13th or 14th century.
