"A hand-coloured print of a company of Paviors outside the Tun Tavern. The Paviors hold rammers resembling large bottles. A portly cleric walks over the paving with an air of solemnity during which the paviors all cheer. On the left stands a woman with a large basket on her head and another Pavior holds a cobble stone and a pick axe. Buildings and a church steeple stand in the background."--Royal Collection Trust online catalogue, RCIN 810446
