Croft Castle
These wonderful floor tiles are in the Church Of St. Michael and All Saints at Croft Castle. They date mostly from the 15th century, but some are even older. They were moved to the church from the former Croft Castle when it was demolished in the 17th century. Various designs can be seen (although I haven’t been able to get the entire floor in the photo) these include, abstract patterns, Coats of Arms, including those of England and France, along with leading families of the period. Although they are now all mixed up, originally the groups would have formed geometric patterns.
Thank you for your visit and your comments, they are greatly appreciated.

MacroMondays the theme is tile for 6/23.
Right now this is my favorite- working on my diningroom table with available light. Would y’all like to see them enlarged for context? Methinks I love these so much bc I found and bought them on one of my visits to my DD in the NL!
Btb, If you look in the first comment box you’ll see where they usually are amongst the teapots…. giggling
The front edge of each tile is 3 inches so I’ve cropped it down so it’s approximately 2.6 cms- see measurement in the photostream . Will also attempt to put it in tge first comment box without loosing the bookcase.
