The north side of the street is occupied by the Ship Inn ; the south by the House of Mr. Edmund Adams Smith. CONSTEIJCTION OF TESSELLATED FLOORS. 63 As we have described the designs into which Tessellae were wrought, and the substances out of Avhich they were designed, we now go on to explain the arrangements which were made in floors previously to the laying down of the last and more... ornamental portion of the Roman Pavements ; and, as the preparation for these appear to have been of a most general character, it fortunately happens that a description of the Cirencester examples will amply explain the methods usually adopted in the completion of these structures.
