Other details: Tracing in pencil. Some of the armorial tiles were brought from New Llanthony on the dissolution of that priory. Conspicuous among these is one bearing `on a chevron three pastoral staves between three Cornish Choughs' impaling the arms of the See of Canterbury. These are the arms of Henry Dene, who was Archbishop AD 1501-1503. He was prior of Llanthony to the day of his death, having been allowed to retain that office in commendam during his episcopate at Bangor, Salisbury and Canterbury.
