A mystery here perhaps. The crown has a Plantagenet look to it, of the type seen in pictures of Henry II and Richard I, but what is it doing lying in a field with Kelston Tump behind it? Lost in a battle? No that was Richard III. Can anyone identify the flowers? The best I can come up with is roses and buttercups.
