專家說明

The inscription on the reverse may indicate that these mirrors once formed part of the furnishings at Trecwn, Llanstinan, Pembrokeshire. John Wesley described its location as 'one of the loveliest places in Great Britain'. The inscription may also refer to one Admiral Vaughan (d. 1789) who lived there (T. Lloyd, The Lost Houses of Wales, London, 1986, p. 70).
