Extract

During a tour I have lately made to collect drawings of curious specimens of old timber-houses, which I shall hope very soon to have the honour of submitting to the Society of Antiquaries, I was led to examine the Date at Colchester, which had engaged the attention of the two ingenious Antiquaries, Messrs. Morant and Gough, and which, from the character of the figures being Church Text, is evidently 1490, and not 1090.
