AN
OAK TABLE with turned pedestal supports on slab feet, joined by
a central stretcher. The shaped cross arms, under the planked and cleated
top, are joined by a pair of plain rails. A much later version (17th
century) of the medieval trestle table, shown elsewhere on our website.
In this example the pillars are turned into a simple dropped baluster
shape and the whole structure is fixed permanently together.
