Oh dear, my mischievous side is coming to the fore.......I know this piece is totally right and very interesting Keith, but it just wandered into my mind "amazing what you can do with a bit of masking tape and an acid wash!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"  :o ;D ;D ;D

Although it does give you an inkling of how the surface decoration might've been achieved.

Never seen one like this before - you must be very pleased  :)


Cheers, Nigel

Gave me the horrors for a minute , I thought you were going to say someone has been arts and crafty and made it up at home, very pleased actually and have just made contact with someone who worked there during the final years, hopefully a bit more information may come to light, ;D
