This keystone, in the form of a satyr's face, would have sat at the top of an arch over the front door. Decorations like this, based on ancient Roman and Greek design, were fashionable in the 1790s. It is probably Coade stone, a terracotta made to look like stone, created by the Coade factory in Lambeth.
Tyndale Place was demolished in 1935.
