Walpole St. Peter, 2

East end glass, not terribly old, but nice

A griffin in the quire

A dozen 14th century paintings of saints before the altar

On the south (starboard) aisle, these pews, facing the main section...strangely

way, and they didn't want to move it with the building of the extended chancel 

Inside the Decorated bolt-hole, 10 or 12 bosses, etc.; prior to 1348, these people
didn't do anything on the cheap

The usual...
