Altar; so far so good
|
Door...no religious imagery...at least that religion...
|
Beautifully carved sandstone, but no obvious
religious symbolism |
After this, however, things start to get a little weird
|
Creature from the Black Lagoon
|
Birds? Of a feather?
|
Lovers...I really like this one
|
Dog and bunny show? My sense of Norman art and architecture is forever
changed... |
Then it gets really weird
|
And weirder
|
The fine print
|
*Afterthoughts: subsequent years of travel, in the UK and throughout Europe taught us that there was really little unique to this little church; it's simply one of finest early examples; and it was the beginning of my subsequent fascination with "funny faces," Sheila-na-Gigs, and so on. Examples abound in the later years of the blog...maybe some day I'll put a tag on them... (May 12, 2020)
