On the back cover:

Medieval objects from the city of Salisbury formed the nucleus of the collection upon which Salisbury museum was founded in 1860. The importance of the Medieval collection, now one of the finest in any provincial museum, has grown with the acquisition of many casual finds and the excavated material from nationally significant sites including Clarendon Palace, Old Sarum and Gomeldon deserted village. This catalogue covers the arms & armour, coins, domestic stonework, harness pendants, rings, seal matrices, spurs, steelyard weights, textiles and tiles, each section written by national specialists. Many objects are published for the first time. Over 450 illustrated.
