| Description |
English: 1912 ("mdccccxii", 4th "c" appears to be missing) Coat of arms of Archibald Robertson (1853-1931), Bishop of Exeter 1903–1916, Exeter city wall. This is at the point where the walls start to run behind the grounds of the bishop's palace (the white capping on the left can be seen in 809408). In 1912 Lollards Tower on the Exeter City Wall was rebuilt and several sculpted stone tablets displaying the arms of Bishop Robertson were set into the walls, including one over the arched entrance known as Bishop Carey's Postern. (http://www.exetermemories.co.uk/em/_buildings/lollards.php).
