Description

Possible Trademark of Stonemason

The engraving on this stone is situated in ruins of Roche Abbey, Maltby South Yorkshire. On close inspection the engraving is in the form of the Right Hand. The two central fingers closed together, the thumb, index and little finger being spaced. One can only guess as to it's true purpose, but I summize the Stonemason scratched an outline around his right hand, and engraved it to fit his right hand.
