Decorative tin-glazed tiles were used in Surrey for over 400 years, first for flooring then later predominantly as walling. These tiles come from four sources: Valencia in Spain, Antwerp in Belgium, The Netherlands and England. Most English tiles are from London, but Liverpool tiles are also present. Tiles from seventeen sites in Surrey are discussed, and a further 84 tile designs are illustrated in the accompanying catalogue.
