Description
A carved and painted half-length figure at the north edge of Bay PV3. It has a pale face, dark curled hair, a blue garment and hands holding a pointed pale shield. Faint dark marks survive on the shield, including small motifs near the top that resemble ermine tails, but the overall design is unclear.
Heraldry
Blazon: A full blazon cannot be recovered. A few small dark marks on the worn pale shield resemble ermine spots, but any principal charge and the original field are uncertain.
In plain English: The shield may have had a white background with the small black marks associated with ermine fur. Too little of the rest of its decoration survives to identify the coat of arms confidently.
Identification: unknown.
Condition
The head, garment, hands and shield survive. The face is worn and the shield has extensive abrasion and paint loss, including a long narrow split or joint running toward its point. The blue garment and the black-and-white beam pattern remain visible; the shield design is only fragmentary.
