There is a fireback which has the coat of arms as follows
on the left supporting the shield is a lion on its hind legs on the right supporting the shield is a griffin on its hinds legs. In the middle of the shield is a tudor rose. above the shield is a royal crown. and the date is 1571.
I don't know who it belonged to. Some things in the house belonged to Sheffield castle but I can't find it in the Earl of Shresbury's family or Bess of Hardwicks family.
Anyone any ideas?
I understand the crown and the tudor rose are signs of a supporter of tudor royalty .
