Just a very quick post to get anyone going who is into Green Men. This, I think, could possibly be unique as it's a Green Man with Dragons emerging from his mouth. Plus Green Man has animal type ears - or are they horns? Must do some more research on him. Pevsner: "a head wih two dragons emanating from the mouth."
"A dragon in profile" according to Pevsner, who attributes them to the "so-called" Herefordshire school!! but he was writing in the early 1960s.
I'll do a proper post on this in the morning. Meanwhile, I am short of several hours sleep and a bit less money than I began the day with, having spent £100 on the house (primer/paint/masking tape and a new perfectly matching almost raspberry pink lampshade - which has made it obvious it is going to have to have a new base too and I will sell the other table lamp). I need to rest. I visited 3 churches today - Bridge Sollers, Madley and St Mary's, Tyberton. Tea was something I froze earlier (mince and beans) from the freezer, so I am gradually getting more room in there.
Back in the morning.
