The inscription has suffered from erosion and is partly defaced. It read in full 'Let thy fountains be dispersed abroad and rivers of water in the streets', a quotation from the Book of Proverbs. It is thought to be original, although the style of lettering is very different from the others on the building http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/5281984 .
