When this was lifted up a large section of worn but intact mosaic floor was exposed. The crest revealed on the floor is that of Queen Victoria who was the monarch at the beginning of the construction of HMS Pembroke in 1897. In this case, rather than lay a new carpet, we have decided to refurbish the mosaic. Not only will it cost about the same but it seems a shame to cover up such an impressive feature. Notes for Editors Members of the public are welcome to view the mosaic from 9am to 5pm on weekdays.
Campus tours are also possible for large groups by prior arrangement.
