Coats of Arms, Market Sign and Decorative Capitals
at Church Street, Stoke
On either wing of the building
is a relief panel of the same coat of arms, a quartered shield with several
charges.
although very weathered the
arms can be seen to be those of the town of Stoke-upon-Trent
(see copy below)
Motto: "E terris dare Artem" - "To produce beauty from the earth"
The building frontage has
several slim pilasters which act as divisions between shop fronts.
These are topped with ceramic capitals depicting a Green Man-type face
amongst foliage.
