Whitland Abbey - fragment of floor tile

This tile would have formed part of a larger sixteen tile design, which may have depicted a park. This fragment shows a hunting dog surrounded by flowers and plants. Originally, there would have been a complex design of quatrefoils and fleurs-de-lys at the centre with a man with a drawn bow at each corner.
