Comments:Formerly thought to be Norwich impaling Cromer according to old index card Armorial attribution based on D.S Howard 1974, p. 411. Howard believed the service was made for Lewis Pryce of Gogirthen. The More arms are probably of Barnborough in Yorkshire and London. Lewis Pryce’s daughter Mary married in 1726 John Campbell of Cawdor, a Lord of the Admiralty, for whom three services were made, two with this impalement.
