Medieval Carvings Winchester Cathedral
Churches are full of extraordinary items, some of them tucked away in hidden corners.
Here is number 5 in a series of short posts, on the out of the ordinary artifacts and objects that can be found in Hampshire churches
Cluster of Carvings
There are hundreds of treasures to pick out in Winchester Cathedral, where to start? The treasure we have selected though, is found on the outside of the building, along the cloister walk.
Turn and look at the wall. It is covered in symbolic carvings, worn by time. Who carved them and what purpose did they serve?
They are Medieval in origin and totally delightful to behold…..
