Pot-lid, earthenware, circular shape with cylindrical flange and convex top; the upperside of the lid decorated with an underglaze polychrome transfer-print, with additional overglaze cloours possibly added by hand, of 'May Day Dancers at the Swan Inn' (although this title is not recorded on the lid), showing a crowd of figures, some dancing or playing musical instruments, in front of a large building with a swan painted on a inn sign, the print enclosed by a simple circular black line border. The flange chipped.
