John Williamson, ''Glastonbury abbey: its history and ruins'' (1865), p. 69〕 The current name preserves both. The front of the three-storey building is divided into three tiers of panels with traceried heads. Above the right of centre entrance arch are three carved panels bearing the coats of arms of the Abbey and of King Edward IV.〔 John Steane says of it The first record of the building is from 1439 when the tenant was N.
