'Bible Land' is a fine example of a restored 17th century tenement building. The pedimented cartouche, dated 1677, depicts the Cordiners emblem, the shoemaker s knife, flanked by cherubs' heads and an open book inscribed Behold how good a thing it is and how becoming well, Together such as brethren are in unity to dwell taken from Psalm 133.
