There were some carvings which absolutely fascinated me and I am going to endeavour to do some research on them. Above and the next two photos below. The squareness of the figure, the bare breasts, long hair . . . what year were these carved, and who is it meant to represent? I'm not going to find these in my Medieval Bestiary!
Update: just been doing some research and it is possible that this is St Christina who, amongst many of her terrible tortures, had her breasts cut off. The carving above shows her with a breast in her hand, and the one below shows her possibly holding a knife and both breasts still in place ...
More fragments of late Medieval glass, this time with faces.
Above and the two below: more very strange carvings. Another bare-breasted figure draped in what looks like a Toga!, with a banner? above her head. Below - a jester-type figure - looking at the serrated edge to the jerkin and a Beastie below him.
I don't know if the head-dresses are significant in this and the "pair" to this carving (above) and again, another Beastie, this one "gurning"!
More colourful fragments of glass built into windows.
Some needlework which one of the two Ladies made.
They were obviously cat-lovers, but not sure if the stuffed cat at the bottom was one of theirs . . .
