Description: An pointed oval stamp with three trefoil arches flanked by candles in two candlesticks with figures within each arch.
In the center, Erkenwaldus of London is mitered, holds a crozier in his right hand and book in his left. He is flanked by Ethelburga and Hildelitha, both of Barking, both wearing abbess' vestments, holding croziers, one with a crescent moon and the other with a star or sun above her head.
Above, are busts of S.Peter with a key and S.Paul with a sword in his left hand, flanking a veiled Virgin Mary. She sits on a bench, holding a fleur-de-lis surmounted scepter in her right hand, and holding a cross-nimbed Christ Child with his right hand raised, seated on her left knee.
Below, beneath an arch, is the abbess (mutilated), probably Ethelburga of Barking, with crozier.
