 The following Plates were drawn and engraved by the late W. A. Church, 
 Esq., of Siicatley. The drawings were made by him during the summer 
 of 1844, whilst engaged in visiting various Churches in the diocese of 
 Oxford, for the purpose of observing what antiquities of an interesting 
 character might exist in them. 
 
 The series had been sea y completed when the decease of Mr. Church 
 caused its subsequent progress to devolve upon the Publisher. Considerable 
 pains have been bestowed in getting up the work, and it is hoped, that, 
 as examples of ancient art, these fac-similes will be appreciated by the 
 Antiquary, and be of service to those engaged in the work of Church 
 Decoration. 
 
 The Tiles from West Hendred, numbered respectively 9, 10, and 11, ex- 
 hibit the third part of a most elegant design composed of nine tiles, No. 10 
 being the centre one.
