Lions are a popular subject for portrayal on door knockers. Are they meant to deter unwelcome visitors? Most of the ones in these sets are from domestic front doors which have caught my attention over the years. Can you spot one from a door of the cathedral in Mainz?
A few lion images which are not doorknockers have crept in. From inns (though none happen to be from pub signs), from an alms house building in Ludlow, and a long-defunct drinking water fountain in the same town.
